Android WebView - Flash swf is playing, it can hear sound, but the screen is blank

Question

I am trying to display local SWF files in a WebView. I have a WebView, and it will be happy to display local HTML files, but when I try to display Flash, the screen is blank. The flash file works as I hear the sound.

Any ideas, or is this just a known issue / bug? I noticed that most swf players from the Android market have the same problem.

Thanks,

John

Answer 1

In manifest files: Set android: hardwareAccelerated = "true"

Source: Flash video not showing up in WebView for Android 3.0.1

Answer 2

Well, after reading Flash-WebView , you should delay loading WebView so that the swf file can display itself.
