Description Robert Brodt

I had recorded several SWF screencasts for BPMN2 Modeler and uploaded them to here:

http://eclipse.org/bpmn2-modeler/videos/

Each screencast has its own HTML page that loads a swflash CAB file from macromedia.com to play the flash file.

I'm not sure when this stopped working, but apparently the CAB files are not loaded properly and the HTML page is blank.

Any ideas what's going on? Is it on the macromedia.com side?

I forgot to mention: when I copy these files to my local machine and open the HTML page, the videos play just fine.

We blocked SWF files(from playing) as part of fixing 434581.

Your users can still download and run the files, or you can upload your videos to Youtube(see https://www.youtube.com/user/EclipseFdn/about on how to get listed on our channel).
