Flash failing with videos on "youtube"

2013-06-16 Thread Jerry
I saw the answer to this a while back, but I cannot find it now.

After working fine for quite a while, this problem has started. When
attempting to play videos on "youtube", I am greeted with a message
that states "Adobe Flash Player is Required for Video Playback? It
then offers me a link to the site; obviously though that link is
useless in FreeBSD. I double checked everything, the ports are all
up-to-date, and I ran "nspluginwrapper", etcetera as specified in
"Chapter 7. Desktop Applications"


Someone else had a similar problem and reported it here awhile ago and
was given the solution. I am running Firefox 21.0 via the ports system
on a FreeBSD-8.3 amd64 system.

Some clips are forced to show commercials and this does not work in
HTML5 even video can be served in WebM/VP8. yesterday I was working on
a Linux machine with flash player and before EVERY movie I got nasty
commercial, this was awful, I am happy that commercials does not work
in HTML5, Vimeo is somewhat alternative but it use proprietary H.264
on the othe hand. Web multimedia is a mess, but I am happy to see
Flash come to an end :-)

You may want to try out the EMBED solution that I have found some time
ago: https://www.tomek.cedro.info/youtube-and-html5/

Best regards,
Tomek

Perhaps that should either be the default setting, I really have no
idea what else it pertains to, or clearly displayed in "Chapter 7.
Desktop Applications"

FreeBSD maximum password length

2013-06-16 Thread takCoder
Hi Everyone,

As i googled it,  there is no maximum limitations for users' password
length by default.. But we may use *pam_passwdqc* module with *max* option
to check it when required.

And i've heard that no-maximum-limits for passwords length is only possible
when we keep them in encrypted form not as plain text, which i think is
matched with FreeBSD behavior.

Am i right? Is that all about maximum password length in FreeBSD? Did i
miss something??

Thank you for all your helps and ideas :)

Best Regards,
takCoder
