Thanks to efforts by volunteers Nosamu and bai0, the Internet Archive's flash emulation just jumped generations ahead.Mute/Unmute works. The screen resizes based on the actual animation's information. And for a certain group who will flip their lid:We can do multi-swf flash now!A pile of previously "broken" flashes will join the collection this week.https://archive.org/details/softwarelibrary_flash

@textfiles Congratulations to everyone working on this. I hope Adobe's happy atop their hoard of proprietary code that could have made this all so much easier - I'm happy that the full availability of these creative works depends less on them every day. Kudos!Going to have some more fun in the flash library tomorrow.

@textfiles I really really really REALLY hope that this eventually includes some circa 2000 showpiece web sites like rayoflight.net, derBauer, and others that were just jaw-dropping animations that were light years beyond what anyone else was doing in Flash at the time. I was durdling pretty hard in Flash at the time but it was like I was playing checkers while these guys were playing inter-dimensional 4-D chess.

@textfiles Can you please make it so if you have Ruffle or Flash compatible browser, YouTube videos play in the original YouTube player if on a 2006-2009 page? HTML player on old YouTube just looks weird.

@erickrouss I don't work in the way back department, but you're welcome to mail info at archive.org with a well-constructed explanation of what you're looking for and it will certainly go to the right team.
