WebView and 1.60

NJDude · Jul 18, 2011

I'm having some issues playing flash in a webview, I have the following line of code:

B4X:

WebView1.LoadHtml("<iframe width='460' height='240' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/zO2vfYNaIbk?autoplay=1' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen></iframe>")

On version 1.5 this line did nothing, meaning, didn't play at all (on my EVO 4G and a "generic and cheap" testing tablet), after I installed 1.6, the table still doesn't play the video but now my EVO just closes the app, no error messages, it just loads the app, displays the white frame where the webview is and closes, if I set 'JavaScriptEnabled' to FALSE on the designer, the EVO doesn't close the window (but doesn't play the video either) if I set it to TRUE the problem mentioned above repeats.

Anyone has this problem as well, or am I a lucky one?

It seems like a problem with your flash plug-in. Check the unfiltered logs. An error message may show there.

I will check the logs, but 2 different devices with the same issue?, the phone has Flash 10.3 and the tablet Flash 10.1, I will take a look.

Thanks

Seems like WebView cannot play YouTube movies. It didn't crash for me but it doesn't seem to play the movie. From searching for this problem it seems that other have encountered it as well.
You will need to send an intent for the YouTube player.

It seems WebView is broken, I tried to play a flash component and a flash movie (non-YouTube) and got the same results on 3 different devices (the EVO still closes without error).

Thanks for your help.
