[Bug 1314486] Re: Flash videos disappears/underlays when using Fullscreen mode.

 

The issue can be fixed by installing the following Gnome extension:
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/851/flash-fullscreen-fix/. It
would be nice if the functionality of this extension could be integrated
into gnome-shell by default. It is a desaster if flash videos could not
be played in a desktop environment.

Title:
  Flash videos disappears/underlays when using Fullscreen mode.

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Flash videos (dailymotion, xnxx, etc.) disappears/underlays when using Fullscreen mode.
  In 13.10, the same would occur, but the workaround was to look for the "underlayed fullscreen icon/fullscreen plugin container", in the activities bar.
  Now on 14.04, that workaround isn't even available.

  It looks like the issue lies somewhere in Gnome. The problem occured
  on UbuntuGnome14.04, so I decided to delete that and install Ubuntu
  14.04. The problem is gone, but... I like Gnome, so I decided to
  install the Gnome shell on top of Ubuntu 14.04, and sure enough, after
  transitioning to Gnome shell, the same problem occurs.

  Can someone help me out please?
