Flash videos stopped working in 16.12

[Martian]

Youtube and other flash videos inserted to document stopped working.
It shows some parts of my app interface instead. Looks like memory corruption or bad pointers.
I didn't change my code just updated.

Do you use TRichView or ScaleRichView?

Please send a sample project reproducing the problem.

[Martian]

It's TRichViewEdit
First of all it was https://
But it's still doesn't work. Inserts black box with no controls but if I click on it I can hear sound from youtube video but no video.
Moving cursor across my app window shows some parts of my toolbars and menus inside that black youtube box.
Nothing related flash video was changed in my app and everything looks the same as in your youtube sample.
But your youtube sample works fine (just fixed https
No idea what can be wrong.

Still no idea what can interfere with flash and RVE

[Sergey Tkachenko]

I need a project where I can reproduce the problem.

Still no YouTube (just black box) in RVE 17.1.1 even in your simple YouTube demo downloaded years ago:

youtube.zip

(2.93 KiB) Downloaded 2161 times

No flash video even from other sources like vimeo or hulu. I can see only garbage like random copies of parts of the interface of my program instead of the video but can hear sound.

[Martian]

Maybe because YouTube doesn't use flash anymore?
And as I can see there is no ActiveX flash component available for Windows 10 but Delphi app can see registered class.
If yes how can we embed HTML5 videos?

[Sergey Tkachenko]

Sorry, I do not know. You need to find third-party component displaying videos, and insert it in our editor.

Can you suggest any? Cannot find any component/demo on how to display HTML5 stream video in Delphi (not using TWebBrowser)

[Sergey Tkachenko]

Sorry, I do not know HTML5 video components.
