Firefox Flash Crash - m4a, flac [Solved]
I am running Madsonic Server 5.0 Build 3710 on Debian 7 and have issues with firefox. When I click play on a file nothing happens for a few seconds. I then hear a couple blips of audio like it's skipping, then I get the image below. Sometimes I get a flash has crashed and asks me to send an error report. This doesn't happen with the standalone of 3710 on my windows 8 desktop (The same firefox browser I'm access my Debian server with).
I noticed it with 3700, maybe even before. Do I need to replace some additional files on my Debian server? Suggestions? Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it does the same thing with HTML5...gurutech wrote:switch to HTML5.

Make sure you have the latest version of flash, and clear your cache too.
You can go to www.ninite.com and download all of the "runtimes" in a single install file, it will only install what needs to be updated, and it automatically disables all the "crapware" that most people install automatically (such as the ask toolbar when installing java).

Re: Firefox Flash Crash - 5.0 Build 3710 (and earlier versio
I have cleared cache and I have the latest version of flash.
I was able to fix it with these steps:
1.) uninstall subsonic
2.) renamed /var/madsonic to /var/madsonic.orig
3.) install Build 3710 from .deb
4.) stop service
5.) replace subsonic.script from /var/madsonic.orig/db/subsonic.script
6.) start service
7.) scan media
Works fine now.
Edit: Nevermind, it's still doing the same thing.

Re: Firefox Flash Crash - 5.0 Build 3710 (and earlier versio
Well it started back doing the same thing. I'm out of ideas, not sure how to fix it now.
I also tried another PC, same thing. Audio intermittently comes and goes, then flash crashes.

I actually started having this exact issue when trying to play flac files. Flash would just lockup and firefox would give me the error. I ended up finding some posts about it that mentioned switching to oracle's java instead which sure enough did fix the problem for me. I'm not sure how similar your issue is though as I said it was only on non mp3 audio that I had the trouble.

Sorry that I don't have much more to suggest, hopefully you can get it ironed out.

Re: Firefox Flash Crash - 5.0 Build 3710 (and earlier versio
I'm think you're on to something, all my audio files are m4a! I tested a mp3 and it works fine. Can you suggest how I install oracle java? I assume you mean on my server...cndmioa wrote:I actually started having this exact issue when trying to play flac files. Flash would just lockup and firefox would give me the error.

Oh now that I think about it m4a did it as well I just only have a couple in that format. Here's the info I used on installing oracle's jdk it was pretty simple.willieb1172 wrote: I'm think you're on to something, all my audio files are m4a! I tested a mp3 and it works fine.

I think I actually left my old java installed (openjdk) judging by my pkg list since I think the oracle one just takes over on it's own. That way I was ready to remove it if needed. Madsonic was the only service I run that uses java so the change wasn't much trouble for me, but if you run other java apps I couldn't say with any certainty if it would cause problems changing from one to the other.

Yup, that fixed it. Streams perfectly now. Thanks cndmioa and everyone else. I did see the issues with flac but didn't associate it with my issue since I wasn't using flac.

Woot! I'm glad to hear that it worked. I'm not sure why changing the java runtime helps considering the transcoding is done by an external executable, but it works and that's good enough for me.
