Streaming Issue with Flashfox

[Hellstrom1]

I had planned to do a little recreational porn watching on my new Samsung Tablet. I was unaware of that so many porn site rely on adobe flash and I am a little leary of trying to download one of the old versions of flash. I was under the impression that the Flashfox browser would allow me to view flash content without issues. However, this has not proved to be the case. On some sites such as Evil Angel, videos are crystal clear but they keep stopping. On other sites, such as kink.com, the videos can only be viewed in low definiton. Why would I settle for low definition when I shelled out the money to get the top of the line Amoled resolution?

Does anybody have any advice or insights?

That's all there is for mobile, an old version of Flash, ver. 11 to be exact. Because Adobe discontinued it, and now only supports Flash with updates for desktop Windows and Mac OS X. Which are on ver. 20 now. That's it, there is nothing else AFAIK. And because Flash is very proprietary, nobody else has managed to make a satisfactory alternative player.

The fix would be if the sites themselves went over to HTML5 instead, which is not proprietary and Adobe exclusive. But that's something they got to do of course.

Thanks for responding. However, when you look in the google playstore at the Flashfox browser it claims to be a solution to this problem. They specifically claim that you will be able to view flash content without downloading adobe flash. So my question is, are they flat out lying or am I doing something wrong? There are all these online reviews of the browser where people state that they can now view any flash content with no problem.

Keep in mind Adobe abandoned support for mobile devices three years ago. As far as Android all Flash content is now accessible only through work-around solutions. Also note that even the current versions of the Flash plugin for computers is now considered to be a security issue, so relying on older versions of Flash definitely make your Android device less safe. We're in a transitional phase where online media is based on HTML5 (integral in our web browsers) and not Adobe's Flash (a resource draining plugin) so eventually this issue won't be such a hassle in a few years. Actually I'm a little surprised you're running into this problem, porn sites as an industry have typically been pretty progressive as far as tech issues.
Anyway, Flash versions are something of problem on their own. Some sites have quite a bit backwards capability, some very little and annoying bug you to upgrade if you're not using the latest one. I don't know what version of Flash the Flashfox browser is using but maybe try Puffin. It relies on some kind of server based solution for Flash content so it'll be a little less taxing on your tablet's resources. Also there's some tips on using Flash in their FAQ page.

Thanks for the info. Puffin sounds promising. I will definitely check it out.

Flash players are no longer available to the newest Android devices running Android 7.0 and upwards, you will have flash fox pro which is a scam as it is advertised as a new app in the play store but it only accepts your Android device if it still runs Android lollipop or you will get kicked out, unfortunately flash apps have been discontinued since 3 years ago.

Flash fox and Flash fox pro only work on old Android devices running Android Lollipop and there is no update for it.
