PS: Before someone asks: Gnash is low quality, written in C++ with Boost, requires Copyright assignment, svn doesn't even compile and it does less than my current Swfdec, so I didn't hack on it
About the low quality and doing less I must say that I have had much better success with it. As a proof, the movie you provided as a sample works well. And unlike your git repository gnash CVS compiles fine. The C++ use is NOT a problem. Actually it probably solve lot of design issues, but I'm just not surprised: this is on Planet Gnome, not Planet KDE.
Bottom line, the only issue left is copyright assignment. I'm not sure what to think about that, there are pros and cons....
