Please refrain from developing to or using the so˗called Unity Web Player®
Why? Because Flash (and HTML5, albeit the switch won’t happen in the near future) is the only cross˗platform solution (and better one).
Unity has this and this positions. Let’s work for a future of open standards and open specification, and for at least full cross˗platforming in the present. (Don’t have the same myopia, too: linux users are the best market )
update Something seemed to happen out of the blue but .. “We have set no release date yet.”
Too few, too late.

Linus Torvalds & others’ patch to Flash Player “Square” for x86_64 flash+mp3 issue ˗ preview 1 to preview 3 (latest: Nov 30, 2010) ˗ bugzilla

update
Flash “Square” moved to Flash Beta 11 (64bit native, ex incubator) on Jul 13, 2011
(fixed some issues w/ obfuscated content, memory hog anyway)
↓
Fedora repack plus antique lahf patch (patch is called only if older intel cpu) via a fedora forum admin & package maintainer [about lahf patch (old 64bit intel cpu): see this ; imho just copying libflashplayer.so it’s enough (you may enjoy your /bin features from official tarball if you like them, too)]
↓
Note: Beta 11 as of Jul 13, 2011 solves some issues with obfuscated content, but it’s a really huge and verified memory hog; it freezes in some rich applications (and games). Consider sticking to “Square” until bugs are solved (or backup ol’ Square_p3 libflashplayer.so).
Square p3 can be re-downloaded directly from Adobe here .

Update: 11.2 “for desktop” (still not officially in EOL) Beta 2 11.2.202.95/96 has several security and memory issues as of Nov 29, 2011. Rest in “stable”
Update: 11.2.202.160 Beta 3 as of Dec 20, 2011 apparently addresses some issues.
Update: 11.2.202.183 Beta 4 as of Jan 19, 2012 – more stable.
Update 11.2.202.221 RC and finally 11.2.202.228 is out at usual place.
Beta Development for specific features for 11.3 continues ex Incubator, major platforms only, after Adobe has eventually put Flash in EOL as of March, 2012.
✪ Unblacklist SGI string (why do you, adobe, do that, why ) for fullscreen etc: create file and containing folder /etc/adobe/mms.cfg and edit mms.cfg with OverrideGPUValidation=1 (and I guess you’ll like EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1 ) | back in 2008 , my
✪ Adobe’s superior coding strikes again
Revert to Square p3 (see above) if this (out of youtube beta) fails/your hardware is not whitelisted.
Note: it’s not a xorg, or nvidia, or ati bug. It’s an adobe feature (!)
Don’t forget to opt in (and/or use better codecs and plugins ) | Got cookies or tricks?
update
To use VDPAU on both nvidia and ati (radeon) (yes, vdpau works on radeon), double check that your mesa is compiled for vdpau ( --enable-gallium-g3dvl --enable-vdpau ); tools like vdpauinfo could tell you more.
Precompiled mesa with vdpau and allegedly patented texture-float will be available in rpmfusion-nonfree for F19, if you’re on Fedora. Here the bugzillas on RH and on rpmfusion you could check.
Because of Adobe’s superior coding, you’ll need a vdpau patched version for flash videos. The patch is applied per default on vdpau>=0.5
Yes, it’s an Adobe bug (not vdpau’s or nvidia’s or ati’s).
Yes, Adobe has been informed of this in 2012, and they randomly closed the bug ticket(s) (“Can’t reproduce” usually, maybe because they’re using the vdpau patched with the workaround for the bug? Or maybe they actually pretend to be dumb just to dump it).
In 2013 the bug is still there, and the workaround still needed. Check the values in /etc/vdpau_wrapper.cfg . vdpau checks in /proc/self/cmdline for libflashplayer; Chrome and PPAPI exported to Chromium could bypass and won’t need this (it seems that google’s flash > adobe’s flash). You may need to remove EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1 in /etc/adobe/mms.cfg to enable vdpau’s presentation capabilities in flash, on some hardware combinations + Flash>=11.2 (still, check that HW accel is on right-clicking on videos; check “video info” e.g. youtube w/ flash, eventually).
