MMS - URL:mms Protocol There is a subkey below this level that uses a shell open cpommand, you could, if you haven't already, try changing the default handler in the location. Improve this answer.

Click "Open With" in the context menu that pops up. Click Properties in the context menu that pops up.
On the General tab, click Change. Click the name of the program VLC which you want to be used to open the file. Pablo Pablo 4, 18 18 gold badges 60 60 silver badges bronze badges. The question was about protocol association, not file association. Sign up or log in Sign up using Google. But blocking content on a system-level is a whole new level no one talks about.
Safari and Firefox have also dropped support for Flash Player at this point. IE and Edge will follow suit soon. The option you do have is to run old software. Ideally, you'd do that safely -- build a VM that's airgapped from the Internet, etc.
Like with any technology, we're not going to stop people with sufficient skills and expertise from doing things that are dangerous. If you want to pull all the safety features off your table saw, that's a terrible idea, but you can do it. Your table saw manufacturer isn't going to tell you how to do that, and for the vast majority of people, it's a wildly inappropriate idea. You know that when you disable those features, you might be walking around with a few less fingers some day, or by removing that annoying kickback guard, you might take a 2x4 to the chest -- nobody's stopping you, but you want to have a full grasp of implications before assuming that risk.
It's pretty much the same deal here. If you're determined and sufficiently skilled, there are workarounds, and the bar is high enough that the vast majority of people aren't going to get themselves into trouble without understanding at least at a high level that what they're doing is a bad idea. The optimal solution here really is to find alternatives that don't require Flash Player.
The population of folks that are skilled and confident about using unstafe technology safely aren't generally asking for help, and if you're googling for a copy-and-paste guide, that's a good indication that you're probably better off with the safeties enabled.
It's a huge hassle to do this correctly, and you're almost certainly better off finding a forward-looking alternative. Marcel5C83 - This thread got noisy and I'm still interested in understanding why this is failing for your application. The thing I'm interested about in your situation is the actual log output.
Flash Player should be logging what's getting blocked. I wrote the following guide for some of our support engineers. Here's the section on troubleshooting desktop applications. This led to later practices of developers embedding Flash Player in desktop applications typically by embedding an IE window for more expressive User Interfaces.
Flash remains popular for creating animated UI elements in specific scenarios, like HUD overlays in video games. In the context of Enterprise Enablement, depending on how Flash Player is leveraged, the application should be able to read and obey directives in mms. The challenge is around debugging, particularly on Windows 8 and higher, where the ActiveX installation path is controlled by Microsoft, and neither the latest builds or debugger variants of ActiveX Flash Player are available.
Once configured, you should be able to see the debugging messages when URL requests are blocked by EnableAllowList, just like you would in a browser. Depending on the bit-ness of the application and the version of IE that gets embedded, you may need to put mms. These are from a popular open-source project that uses Flash for graphical overlays in broadcast video news chirons, etc :. This opens a whole can of worms in terms of ambiguous URIs, which can lead to things like unexpected network store traversal via UNC path.
Requiring RFC-conformant URIs is intended to solve those issues, but it became obvious as we got more input from the field that there was a class of legacy applications that were not passing in valid URIs. I'm super curious about the URIs that are getting sent. There's no possibility of pushing out an update at this point that would change the behavior, but at that point, we can have an informed look at what's happening.
If there's an edge case that we didn't think of, I can at least debug it and see if there are any useful recommendations. In terms of addressing this, you probably just want to update your application to normalize those paths to RFC compliant URIs. This is what Caspar the software from the case study above did. You might be able to just crib the normalization code from their Github repo. It's much more cost-effective to just patch the application to pass in a valid URI in the first place.
At that point, you should be able to look at the logs and write matching AllowListUrlPattern directives that work. That package is currently optional, but the next big roll-up update scheduled around summer will require it. Adobe was never able to distribute an installer for the ActiveX Flash Player on that platform, so you can't just reach back and get and old version.
Deploying a licened version from HARMAN confers some meaningful benefits -- those builds continue to get functional and security updates.
I basically gave up on this case. It's a cold case for me now. I see that getting to the ground of it would require to log the pathes and setup a vm and track everything but that's not in my area. I'm not the coder of the program tbh I'm more a middleman trying to find a soultion for 2 parties. All I can say is that my "path" worked for Google Chrome. I could tun the local file in the browser with using my mms. It does not. Or maybe it's not reading the mms.
But I can sent you how it was integrated. Maybe it helps some other people when looking for this thread. Basically any Apple, Android , or Windows device supports the Chromecast app. Chromecast comes in stick and dangling form factors.
Use your web browser to find a free MP3 download that you'd like to stream. First, make sure that the computer's optical drive is capable of reading DVD media. If you see an error from Windows Media Player that says "compatible DVD decoder not installed," this means that a plugin called an mpeg-2 decoder needed to play DVDs is not installed.
The Windows Media Player plugin is sold for a fee. Go to the Control Panel and search the term media using the provided search box and select Media Streaming Options under the Network and Sharing Center.
Click the Turn on Media Streaming button to turn on the media streaming server. Typically, the disc will start playing automatically. If it doesn't play, or if you want to play a disc that is already inserted, open Windows Media Player , and then, in the Player Library, select the disc name in the navigation pane.
First things first, install the VLC app on your Android device, which you can grab from the link below. Step 2Allow the App to Play in the Background. Enabling Windows Media Player Open the stat menu. Open the Control Panel. Launch the Programs and Features. After looking at customer feedback and usage data, Microsoft decided to discontinue this service.
This means that new metadata won't be updated on media players that are installed on your Windows device. Step 2: Reboot. That is all. Step 4: As you can see in the picture above, Groove Music is the default music or media player on Windows
