Re: Problem google-chrome Flash Player with http://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news

[Bob Weber <bobrweber@gmail.com>]

This is the safe way to browse the web.  The flash plugin is apparently disabled by default.  What you can do is make an exception for nbc.  Go into settings/advanced and click on the button for "Content settings".  Scroll down to Flash. Click on "Manage exceptions" and enter "[*.]nbc.com" without the quotes.  Make sure Allow is set and hit the enter key.  This makes an exception for all of nbc so that things are displayed correctly.  You should also check that you don't ad/malware blocking extensions installed that might block content on nbc.  If so make sure nbc is white listed there also.

Hi

The Flash Player that comes with Google-Chrome has become more noisy with newer versions of Google-Chrome.

In the beginning Flash just displayed the video.

Then it displayed the start symbol that you had to click in order for the video to start.

Now it displays a puzzle piece with the message to right click the puzzle piece and then select "Run the plug-in".

That works generally but it fails with NBC News pages. "Right-click to run Adobe Flash Player" appears overlayed by a rotating circle segment. but right-click never shows ythe option to run the plug-in.

Can anyone verify this and what is to be done?
