> What steps will reproduce the problem?
I open the app and open a SWF file.

I expect it to finish Reading the SWF and show the decompiled contents but it instead
hangs there at 100%.
> What version of the product are you using? Is it "nightly build"? Which operating system
do you have?
v.14.4.0 not Nightly. Mac OS 10.14

file, attach it here, otherwise we can't help you.
Which SWF file? You did not attach any.
Please provide sample SWF file which does this, otherwise we can't help you.
@JPEXS I think the size of the SWF is the issue, Its 88 MB Large. I Downloaded a sample
swf online and It decompiled perfectly fine. BTW Every time I try to run the swf I get an
error saying "Flash player projector not found" Do I have to install flash? adobe doesn't
distribute it anymore
88 MB is too large to send.
Flash player projector can be downloaded here:
https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/debug_downloads.html
You must then configure its path in FFDecs advanced settings.
88 too large? That's weird, we have limit of 150MB per file, 88 should be okay. I should
check this ...
Also - try the nightly build

I think we fixed this kind of bug in the issue #1687.
I configured the projectors path in settings and its still saying not found?
am I supposed to download the content debugger or the standard version?
I think the FFDec configuration is pretty self-explanatory.
If the link on webpage says "Download the Flash Player projector",
you put the path to the downloaded file to "1) Flash Player projector path" field.
This is required for Run action.
If the link on webpage says "Download the Flash Player projector content debugger",
you put the path to the downloaded file to "2) Flash Player projector content debugger
path" field.
This is required for Debug action.
Also I only tried it on Windows, you are using Mac OS, this might be related.
It looks like the MacOS downloads are '.dmg' files. Are these executables on Mac OS?
You may need to install these first and then fill the path to executable itself.
paths.png (48 KiB)it just flashes "Running" on the bottom of the window and then does nothing? I installed
the .swc and everything
.dmg files are not executables but installation files. .app files are executables though.
nevermind, apparently FFDec needs permissions to run/use the projector executables. weird.
I tried using sudo in the terminal to run as admin and it came out as command not found.
now it says I need 64bit OS + 64Bit Java??
Cannot reproduce without sample SWF.
