Flash applications

Does anyone know if PSP can run macromedia flash applications? Either homebrewn or with the latest firm. Can't test the latter ;)

The latest firmware can't play Flash; can't say one way or the other about homebrew apps.

Sony announced the other day that they plan to include a Flash player in a future firmware update.

I've recently ported the GameSWF engine over to the PSP.
You can download it from http://files.psphacks.net/details.php?file=93
It's a little buggy at the moment, but I'm working on improving it! :D

Cheers,

71M: I tried to playback a .swf which loads a flash video (.flv). That didn't work. I suppose that's not supported?

Hi Jockyw2001,
Unfortunately only embedded video streams are supported on the PSP.
FLV as far as I know are streams over the internet, correct me if I'm wrong :)
So it looks like you'll have to embed the video stream in the flash file on export (however you do that?)

Cheers,
