Android 4.1.1 Tablet Flash Problem

:mad:I have been trying to get flash to run using Firefox and dolphin. Looked at numerous posts online but cannot find a fix. I get the message ( error loading player: No playable sources found) Utube player runs OK.
I have re-downloaded Flash player, no joy still. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated, perhaps I might have to root tablet? The tablet is a PIPO M8.
 
Aside from downloading Flash Player, you have to run it (to install it). Dolphin handles Flash content. Firefox? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Next Browser also handles it.
 
Thanks for info, it is running for flash based games but not for streaming video from eg. cricfree.tv
Any further ideas please?

That's likely a different situation. I'm not familiar with the service you mentioned, but if it's like Hulu, they block it from mobile devices. Go into your browser settings and see if you can have the User-agent ID itself as a desktop computer. I have it running that way with Dolphin Mini and Hulu.

Might be a problem or duff website, it's trying to download some Windows .EXE file, of course can't run that on Android. If any site is trying to push unsolicited Windows executables, I'm always suspicious and would say it's malware.

EDIT:

Tried it on the Mac, it's some illegal streaming site, that redirects to another site asking for credit card information.

Anyway forum rules forbid the discussion of anything illegal.
