Flash problem - no volume controls on some videos
CB
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷDer Millionendorf- Icrontian
Some flash videos have lost their volume controls, and they end up being either too loud, and I have to turn down my speakers, or worse, they are too low, or silent, with no way to turn them up.
Jon Stewart is completely silent.
Where are the volume controls in this picture? Are they only missing for me, or are they gone for you guys too?
They haven't disappeared from every flash player, only a few. YouTube players, for example, still work just as expected. I've mostly run into it with players on promo websites (like sites for marketing a specific video game), and Jon Stewart. Jon Stewart is the only one that is completely silent. Most of them are too loud.
It does the same no matter what browser I open it in.
This problem is making me feel dumb. It's like I'm looking for my sunglasses while they're on top of my head. What kind of idiot can't figure out how to use a flash player?

Allow third-party Flash content on your computer:
Visit the Adobe Flash Global Storage Settings Panel.
The Adobe Flash Player Settings Manager should display.
Check the box labeled: "Allow third-party Flash content to store data on your computer."
To ensure the check sticks please click one of the tabs at the top of that box and then click back to the (Global Storage Settings Panel). The box should still be checked.
Once this is complete, close all browser windows and try re-playing the Live Event.
Please be advised that this action stores a Flash cookie on your computer. Flash enables this by default upon install.
Check your Antivirus and Firewall software to see if you're blocking third party Flash content.
It made me think to look and see if the daily show website was actually storing anything on my system, so that I could perhaps delete it, but either it isn't, or it's not stored under thedailyshow.com, so I just deleted all flash storage, which I hope I don't come to regret.
Problem is still there. I checked on other PCs in the house, and it's only my main PC which has the issue.

Dear Adecosa,
Thanks for your feedback of Splashtop Remote.
In answer to your inquiry, basically the behavior is determined by the operation system(Windows 8) detects multi-touch driver exists in system. Since the installer of Splashtop Streamer will install multi-touch driver for supporting Windows 8 touch gesture on touch screen, when the OS detects a certain driver exists and will do the changes automatically.
If you actually don't need to use Windows 8 gesture function or you still have any concerns about such changes, you can try to disable our multi-touch driver from [Control Panel] - [System] - [Device Manager] - Disable [Splashtop Virtual Hid] to see if it will work for you.
Hope it helps.
Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks for using the Support service!
Regards,
Splashtop Support Team
