1307891 2012-10-21 04:09:00 i know that, flash is no longer officially supported on ICS and above. May not be officially supported, but the links given are to a flash player that will install, as shown in the video as well.

The link The Error Guy gave is the same developers as the one I posted previously.

Many programs are not officially supported these days, doesn't mean software cant be written or supplied that will work (thats Any OS, MAC, Windows , Android etc).

Thats the trouble - some OS's and "improvements" :rolleyes: are moving faster than some web sites update. Don't worry TV on demand may catch up in a year or two :D

1307892 2012-10-21 04:39:00 Flash won't work for long even if it works now. As Adobe are no longer supporting it, it will soon become out of date. Alex B (15479)
1307893 2012-10-21 22:03:00 That's true, although it will work for (hopefully) long enough until TVNZ migrate to HTML5 or other content system and if we are really lucky actually make a mobile On Demand app that scales media to screen size/resolution etc. Personally I'd get rid of flash sooner or later since it might become a security hole. I kinda doubt that one would fall victim to an android based flash attack since it's not really going to be on many devices, even less now! The Error Guy (14052)

Tried last night for the first time. Not again. plod (107)
1307895 2012-10-21 22:59:00 it says that "This player is not enabled for HTML5 delivery"
That is HTML5 not Flash.

1307896 2012-10-23 08:57:00 Try SkyFire Browser ? Or Dolphin?

play.google.com

Chrome on Android 4 will not work with Flash even if you have it installed.
Stock and Dolphin Browser does, but you will have to side load the Flash Player as suggested by others.
