  • hello,
    I am really new to libreElec
    this is my first post here
    hope I am in the right place
    I want to convert from galliumOS to libreElec
    a browser and flash are a must.
    Tried chromium addon version tried 8.1.106 and version 8.1.104 in libreElec 7.90.010, clean install today.
    Flash is not working, is this operator error?

    Chromebox
    LibreElec 7.90.010Kodi 17.0beta7 git:17.0-beta7-eed32e7
    chromium: tried 8.1.106 and version 8.1.104
    configure: default settings also tried turning on and off other settings-no go.
    actions: ran netflix and flashplayer support
    Thank you.

  • I also don't get flash player to work in chromium.
    My configuration:
    LibreElec Version 7.0.3
    Architecture Generic X86_64
    I recently upgraded from openElec (where flashplayer in chromium was working).
    after upgrade chromium was still available and I believe auto upgraded, but flashplayer no longer worked.
    I have tried installing libpepflashplayer.so from chromium configuration, action tab. installation succeeded was reported.
    I also tried uninstalling chromium, reinstalling chromium and again installing the pepflashplayer. This didn't work as well, however after this action still all my bookmarks were in place in chromium so I doubt the uninstall was very thorough.

    Suggestions? Let me know if I could provide additional info.

  • I had the same problem. I solved it this way:
    1) Download flash_player_ppapi_linux.x86_64.tar.gz
    2) Unzip the file libpepflashplayer.so
    3) The Copy libpepflashplayer.so to /storage/.kodi/addons/browser.chromium/bin/PepperFlash/
