Unable to reproduce the issue on Windows and Chrome: 41.0.2270.0. Can you
navigate to chrome://plugins and see if Flash is enabled ?

screencast is "ok" but Chrome is not ok: the problem happens only with
chromium build from https://chromium-build.appspot.com/p/chromium/console
to get flash working for chromium you must also install flash from adobe

it works if i manuelly add ppapi flash from adobe with --ppapi-flash-path
--ppapi-flash-version

as npapi will be soon blocked by default, for me this bug could be fixed if
Bug 448681 could be fixed

Confirm this is an issue for me as well. Enabled flash for the site and it
starts loading the stream but then stays loading. Enabling NPAPI causes it
to fail enabling PPAPI seems to work but PPAPI causes problems for other
sites. This is an issue that needs to be addressed. It isn't an issue with
any other browser.

As of March 12th 2015, NPAPI fails to load any streams from twitch.tv.

Enabling PPAPI works but causes problems with other streams (notably
hockeystreams.com).

If you need any additional details to fix the issue, don't hesitate to
write back. Would be nice to have a fix asap.
