I did some tests and the plugin seems to be correctly loaded.

These pages report that flash is working when you use the GlobalCEFApp.CustomFlashPath property :
https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/ ... -installed
https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/about/

However, when you try to run the flash content it gets blocked with an ERR_ABORT error in the TChromium.OnLoadError event, even when you set GlobalCEFApp.DisableWebSecurity to True.

This issue doesn't happen when you use the flash plugin installed in Windows. :shock:

The bad news is that all Flash related issues are marked as "wontfix" and closed in the CEF project because Flash is about to be discontinued in 2020.

I tried the official sample application (cefclient) using these switches and I had the same results.

Code: Select all

cefclient.exe --ppapi-flash-path=flash\FlashUtil32_32_0_0_192_pepper.dll --ppapi-flash-version=32.0.0.192 --cache-path=cache
Read this for more information about the Flash deprecation in Chromium :

Flash will be disabled by default in July. :shock:
