Edit Otobert, 13th, 2017: Added Stretch support
Flash support is now realized in chromium-browser using the pepperflash plugin. It is installed by default on new images and can be installed on older systems with rpi-chromium-mods.
By adding a wrapper it can also be used in a lot of other browsers (Firefox, kweb, Midory, Qupzilla ...). It will not work in browsers built with gtk+3: epiphany, kweb3 and (currently) kweb on Stretch.
Flash support for other browsers (based on an original post by paulwratt):
For installation we need gdebi-core (or the full GUI version of gdebi):
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install gdebi-core
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install gdebi
1) For Jessie:
Code: Select all
wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/f/freshplayerplugin/browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash_0.3.5-1~bpo8+1_armhf.deb
sudo gdebi browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash_0.3.5-1~bpo8+1_armhf.deb
Code: Select all
wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/f/freshplayerplugin/browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash_0.3.5-1+b1_armhf.deb
