Description-en: GNU Shockwave Flash (SWF) player - Common files/libraries
GNU Gnash is a free GPL'd SWF player. It runs as a standalone application
on either the desktop or embedded devices, or may be used as a plugin
for several popular browsers. It supports playing media from a disk or
streaming over a network connection.
.
GNU Gnash is based on GameSWF and supports most SWF v7 features and some
SWF v8 and v9. SWF v10 is not supported by GNU Gnash.
.
Included in the Gnash is an XML based messaging system, as specified in
the SWF specification. This lets a SWF animation communicate over a TCP/IP
socket, and parse the incoming XML message. This lets an animation be a remote
control for other devices or applications.
