Hi

I have a .swf application running in the front end,

This application can take anytime form 5 to 20 minutes

In the Background there is an color FLV running as a loop

The problem is when the FLV reaches the end, the screen is flashing momentarily and then loop starts again

As this application will be projected on a video wall this temporary flashing is not acceptable

OS windows 10 adobe flash Player 11

This seems to be a long-standing limitation.

Hardware decoding is much less forgiving and flexible than software decoding, and because we're targeting a broad population, we're frequently limited to the lowest-common-denominator to ensure broad compatibility with what's on the market.

I'd have to investigate deeper to dig up the history on that, but at this point in the product lifecycle, it seems unlikely that we would invest in addressing it (assuming that there's a reasonable solution).

There's a long discussion and a number of snippets that look like working solutions in this thread:
