From Justin Everett-Church

Adobe just release a new version of Flash Player 10 beta (10.0.0.525). There are a few new things to talk about! In addition to the primary features, and all of the fixes and improvements requested by the community that made up the first beta, we’ve added a few more items that have repeatedly heard from customers about:

* limited fullScreen Keyboard support
* unloadAndStop
* Wmode support for Linux

None of the new features interest me... but I thought that I would post the list from the Adobe site since it lists a little more.

I hope you reported that :bad:

That's the whole purpose of these betas (or most of the purpose) to ensure backwards compatibility

Wow, now this feature is huge:


unloadAndStop
Grant Skinner and several other in the community have rightly pointed out some issues Flash Player 9 has with unloading content where it remains accessible after unload and elements such as audio keep playing until the item is garbage collected. We’ve worked many members of the community to come up with a solution that knocks out the major issue.

Starting with Flash Player 10 you will now be able to use unloadAndStop to unload a loaded SWF and also remove references, stop audio and video and in every way possible just make it go away.

Awesome! :thumb:

FYI, this is pretty hacked. It was a known issue since the start of 9 but grant's public uprising helped it get into 10. It probably won't work 100% but it beats what was there before.
