Did anyone manage to get chromium web-browser working with flashplayer ?
So far what I tried:
sudo apt install flashplugin-installer
that worked well for firefox but no effect on chromium.
then I tried:
sudo apt install adobe-flashplugin browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash
but it removed the adobe-flashplugin and made firefox's tabs crash when I tried to play some flash powered video. But again no effect to chromium.
I tried both snap and non-snap version.
Any suggestions ?
I found this link http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/10/pepper-flash-chromium-opera-ubuntu/
After several combinations I found that only following step #1,step #2 and step #4 (avoiding step #3) and installing flashplugin-installer, somehow worked for both.
