About Ubuntu14.04lts 64-bit play Youku video

Cause: Chrome can't play Youku video and then change Firefox to discover that it doesn't have a flash plugin installed.

Explanation: There is a lot of talk about chrome on the internet, saying that the new version of Chrome does not support Adobe Flash, but these are not what we should worry about, in the new version of Chrome (Ubuntu) has included flash-related plugins, Can see (last plugin)

But today my computer is brain pumping, it can still be used, look at the dead, Tinker half a day, and suddenly inexplicable wonderful good, this is not the point.

Firefox Install Adobeflash plugin:

In fact, there is a description in the compression pack under Adobe (Readme.txt):

InstallingusingThe plugin tar.gz:o Unpack The plugin tar.gz and copy the files to the appropriate location.    o Save the plugin tar.gz locally and note the location the file is saved to.    o Launch terminal and change directories to the location the file is saved to.  o Unpack the tar.gz file. Once Unpacked you'll see the following:+libflashplayer.so+ /usr o Identify the location of the browser plugins directory, based on your Linux distribution and Firefox version  o Copy libflashplayer.so to the appropriate browser plugins directory. At the prompt type:+ CP libflashlayer.so <BrowserPluginsLocation>o Copy the Flash Player Local Settings configurations files to the/usr directory. At the prompt type:+ sudo cp-r usr/*/usr

Here is the explanation: the RPM package on the Adobe website is a bit old, or it is recommended to download the tar.gz package for the other Linux.

Do not want to read English, I translate here the main steps:

1. Unpack the tar.gz package

tar -XZVF < ZIP package name >

2. After decompression you can see that there is a libflashplayer.so in the folder, there is a USR folder, of course, there are some other folders, but it does not matter.

3. Find the location of your Firefox plugin, usually/usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/

4. Copy the libflashplayer.so to the directory in 3

CP  libflashplayer.so/usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/

5. Copy the USR folder in the unzip file to/usr/

sudo cp -R usr* / usr

Then restart the browser to play the Youku video properly.
