I just tested gnash on youtube (because it is so commonly requested; it's not of particlar interested to me and up to now I've just not used flash at all because I only knew about gnash and it didn't support any site I wanted) and all I get is the replay or share buttons that are supposed to show up after the video, not the video itself (this is gnash in lenny, which ATM is the same as the one in sid), while swfdec-mozilla in lenny does work. OTOH neither works with the site I actually am interested in. Fortunately for that site their audio podcast provides the same information so it's not critical, but would rather just be nice to be able to see the video. > > it if it's shipped too early in Desktop.
