in Iceweasel. Flash 11 is totally disabled in Iceweasel in the below screen shot.



Install Greasemonkey in Iceweasel first. Shutdown and restart Iceweasel. Install script for Linterna Magica next. Install

Code: Select all

$ apt-cache policy gecko-mediaplayer
gecko-mediaplayer:
  Installed: 1.0.6-1
  Candidate: 1.0.6-1
  Version table:
 *** 1.0.6-1 0
        500 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Or VLC browser plugin if you installed VLC media player in core iso instead of mplayer.

Works in full screen for me also.



Edit: make sure and restart Iceweasel again to make sure changes take hold also. Also. Some youtube videos may not play for you. I noticed this one
gave me missing plugin error after getting past flash block.
