Never managed to get mine working for Seagulls player. Other flash yes but not that. I currently have one of the skyfire guys looking into it.

Hats off to you for doing that. Yes, I've never got it to work on Skyfire either...

Apple don't want Flash running on iDevices as they perceive it to be buggy, bloaty, insecure and not open.

Photon, and similar, get round this by running the Flash content on their servers and then streaming it to you in an iFriendly way. As such, Apple are cool as the iDevice is not running Flash itself.


It might also be worth pointing out that Adobe have no intentions of developing Flash any further in the mobile space because of these problems. So all of the Apple bashing for lack of flash has been completely and utterly put to bed... just saying like.

The fault lies surely with the company that streams the media via Player. They should have an HTML 5 version of their website up and running.

Maybe they haven't got many subs to fund this, especially as there is no limit on people sharing streams simultaneously on the same account.

Oh yeah, THAT's the reason!
Nothing to do with Apple having QuickTime and not wanting to share with anyone else?

and not open?! You're joking right? Apple, the open-loving company that they are!

I'm off to look at the ios/macos source code... Oh no wait...

Decided to go down the Football Leauge App route and is brilliant. Payed £4 for 6 months subscription and videos load really quickly etc. Not too fussed about the commentary as I have a radio and I go to a majority of games :)
