Topic: Small question regarding flashes/videos on e621

Posted under Off Topic

Get a better browser. Firefox and Chrome both support webm, which is the video format we use, and at least Dolphin says they support flash, though I'm not sure how compatible it is.

On iPhone, for flashes, I use Puffin web browser. It has a flash viewer, that also lets some minor interaction (typing in, but not WASD. Clicking, mousepad type mouse, gamepad, which can be configured for WASD). For videos, I use VLC , which is free and plays up to WebM files. The advantage of VLC is it can download videos instead of just playing them, so you can access the videos through the app.

Videos work fine in Chrome but not Puffin
Flashes work fine in Puffin but not Chrome
Dolphin doesn't seem to support flash anymore

My phone plays the video files on here just fine, but for flash animations I installed the Firefox web browser then installed Adobe Flash Player.

I just downloaded puffin, and most of the flashes work pretty smoothly, but I'm unable to view any videos, even with firefox, chrome, and puffin.

you probably need some sort of webm viewer for that. just google "how to view webm on mobile" and you should find some options
