Missing plugin when streaming

[Krassegrand]

I sometimes stream from [site link removed, suspected contravention of copyright rules] but with Rasbian I don't get any moving picture but I do get a fault message saying Missing plugin.
Can this be fixed?

I am just trying with Ice weasel

[Krassegrand]

Also with Iceweasel it needs Adobe.

Looks like its a Flash site, so no, it isn't going to work since Adobe don't do Flash for the Arm processor. There are substitutes that work with varying degrees of success. Try googling flash on raspberry pi. its a minefield out there. Personally I view the Pi as a poor substitute for a desktop and do my surfing on an x86 machine with Linux.

Theres currently the Pepperflash plug in that can run on a Pi2, but it's not hardware accelerated and really slow. It works, though.

I have found installation guides for Debian.
Does that work with Raspbian?
What happends if I install somethin for Debian when I am using Raspbian?

Then your install will either not work, or it will break your system and you would have to start over. This only works on the Pi2:

You can not install anything on Raspberry

If you have Raspbian or Ubuntu OS installed then same as any other forum post about installing software:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install [name of package]

Though be aware you will need to have a RPi2 Board, though you will install a newer Chromium Browser if you have installed a Ubuntu based Distro like:

https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/ubuntu- ... y-pi-2/517

[Krassegrand]

If you have Raspbian or Ubuntu OS installed then same as any other forum post about installing software:

So I could use any guide for Ubuntu to install on Raspbian?
Then it would not be difficult to find a guide for Ubuntu and Adobe.

Ubuntu for Raapberry Pi or Raspbian, not just any Ubuntu install. Look at the link fruitoftheloom posted, apt is very useful.

No! It is my 3e!

I feel very unsafe when stumbling around in the terminal so I will ask one more question!
If I put this command in the terminal,

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pepperflash

will it install Pepperflash?

NO, my responses earlier was regards installing Chromium Browser

[Krassegrand]

So the command (in Raspbian) should be

apt-get update
apt-get install chromium chromium-l10n

to get Chromium?

Jörgen

[ghans]

Yes.

[Krassegrand]

Chromium is running now!

The stream is still complaining about the flash player!

Is it time for the below command now

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pepperflash?

You need to follow the link I posted, it's not that easy and some of the steps are complicated.
