How did you get it to even work? For me, with gstreamer -good -bad -ugly
and -ffmpeg, doesn't work at all. With the same setup, gnash at least
works in some cases (youtube for instance).
I'd rather just use Adblock/NoScripts to block such content on sites I
don't want to display. This way, it also collapses the given flash
object.
Further, swfdec-mozilla depends swfdec-gtk, whereas I don't see any
Gnome related deps for gnash...
