StageWebView disable Flash Plugin

Hello everybody,

I am developing an App with Adobe AIR for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.

In some part of the application I use a StageWebView to display HTML-Content.

Unfortunately within the HTML-Content there is flash-content and its performance is bad.

Therefore we disabled rendering of Flash content  by adding "<application android:hardwareAccelerated="false"/>" to the AIR-Discriptor file.

But this options only prevent rendering/visibility of flash-content and actually does not disable the use of the plugin within the StageWebView.

Also if I changed under Android browser settings the usage of plugins the behavior is the same.

The native android browser behaves the right way.

Is there any posibility to really disable the plugin in StageWebView?

Regards,

Jan

has anybody an idea?

or can you tell me why the performance of StageWebView is so bad on android?

for example on iOS the StageWebView performs with the same app very good.

The difference you're seeing is that iOS does not allow Flash plug-ins, even through StageWebView.

(sorry, can't help you on how to turn off the plug for Android)
