Problems viewing Video from Websites

[gmagnes]

I often am unable to play video that is available on the web, such as from sites that are making tv shows available by video (e.g., booktv.org, cbsnews.com, etc.). Sometimes I'll get a message indicating the need to have a particular version of flashplayer, which I can't download directly onto the Iphone of course. Can anyone offer any hints on how to deal with this? Is there a software program available through the Itunes store or some other way to manage this sort of thing?
thanks,
Gerry

No, you can't play flash videos on your phone.

still you can see all the other .mpg and .avi videos that is quite cool

Or actually a developer could do a program to see flash!!! Would be a great idea!!!

You and about EVERY OTHER PERSON ON THE PLANET are begging for Flash on the iPhone... but what gives?
Egos probably. Sucks if you ask me

Calm down guys. He is new here, yes he could have searched first, but that doesn't mean we should berate him.
