Kobo Vox and Flash

Ogien · 11-28-2011, 03:25 PM

Was anyone able to get Flash working on the VOX? If so can you post a link to instructions or download.

Thanks, the link is broken but quick google for jefftheworld app pack solved it. Unfortunately it seems that the Kobo's processor is too slow to watch flash movies, however at least flash works for other things.

Link works fine for me? In any case, you can search this forum and find the thread.

Also, I disagree that it's too slow. It may depend on the resolution of the video...I think it struggles with hd but sd should be fine.

Hmm maybe I am doing something wrong, I can watch youtube videos fine though the built-in YouTube app, but if I try going to a website with built in flash video it is choppy even in SD.

I've given up on streaming anything, for now. After I did a factory reset, I didn't even bother re-installing Flash 11. I will probably not be doing much on the Vox with WiFi (besides email and light browsing), so I can be patient enough to wait for udpates that will fix the streaming issues (which seem to come and go).

Flash 11 seems good here. Full screen is smoother than embedded for live streaming. Often it seems Flash is self disabled however and I have to reinstall it.
