Just like flash on the web, flash started to replace director there too, especially when flash got good with video (a lot of kiosks use video). But flash also had memory problems which could cause trouble for long-running kiosks to crash. Times square ran flash for one of those large video screens and had to have a second, failover player running for when the first crashed. We weren’t too happy about that. I think we kept giving them new, better builds, but I don’t think it ever really worked completely right.
