Adobe Flash Player is a multimedia platform used to add animation, video, and interactivity to Web pages. Flash is frequently used for advertisements and games.
This wiki page describes how to install the Adobe Flash Player, formerly known as the Macromedia Flash Player, on Debian systems. This page serves as the homepage of the Debian package flashplugin-nonfree.

End User License Agreement of the Adobe Flash Player

The newest versions of the Debian package flashplugin-nonfree have this warning in the package description:

WARNING: Installing this Debian package causes the
Adobe Flash Player to be downloaded from www.adobe.com.
The End User License Agreement of the Adobe Flash Player
is available at www.adobe.com.

Installation

Install flashplugin-nonfree.

Upgrade

How to update the Adobe Flash Player:

# update-flashplugin-nonfree --install

Supported browsers in Debian

Troubleshooting

  • Remember that if you need the Flash Player to work with pulse, you can ask libasound to do so in your ~/.asoundrc:

    pcm.pulse {
        type pulse
    }
    
    ctl.pulse {
        type pulse
    }
    
    pcm.!default {
        type pulse
    }
    
    ctl.!default {
        type pulse
    }
  • To verify the Adobe Flash Player version number installed on your system, access the About Flash Player page, or right-click on content running in Flash Player and select "About Adobe (or Macromedia) Flash Player" from the menu. If you use multiple browsers, perform the check for each browser you have installed on your system. (Source)

  • In case the plugin causes high cpu-usage, you can try this: create /etc/adobe/mms.cfg:

     # Adobe player settings
     AVHardwareDisable = 0
     FullScreenDisable = 0
     LocalFileReadDisable = 1
     FileDownloadDisable = 1
     FileUploadDisable = 1
     LocalStorageLimit = 1
     ThirdPartyStorage = 1
     AssetCacheSize = 10
     AutoUpdateDisable = 1
     LegacyDomainMatching = 0
     LocalFileLegacyAction = 0
     AllowUserLocalTrust = 0
     # DisableSockets = 1
     OverrideGPUValidation = 1
     EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1
  • A recent change to glibc 2.13 has exposed a bug in the 64 bit Flash plugin that causes sound distortion on some videos. A workaround has been committed upstream in glibc but has not been integrated in Debian yet. For workarounds and followup, see 628652 .
