Thanks for the list and the explanation of all those parameters.
I’ve digged into the current version of the debug Flash Player (Linux, 32-bit, 11.2.202.233) and found a couple of changes. Some parameters are missing (not supported … but this might be only due to the platform differences … I guess you analyzed the Windows version) and a few were added.
If somebody is interested, you can take a look at it here:

I’m not sure whether all of these actually work. I just grabbed from the Flash Player shared lib (libflashplayer.so) all strings that were in the same bunch as some known mm.cfg parameters and looked as if they could be parameters themselves.
If just somebody would take the effort to go over them and test each …

awesome article, need to get deeper into it but I am wondering about the phrase from first paragraph about undocumented ability to enable right mouse button in Flash Player. Have anyone any clues?

WONDERFUL!!! thanks a lot! I’d like to ask: I can’t get any flash debug player version more than 10.1 (10.3.181.23 is actual now) to work – it plays flash content but doesn’t debug flashlog. I’ve tried many versions but everytime I must return back to 10.1 version that works.
Does anyone know where is the problem? Has anyone same problem?

[...] extra mm.cfg params – this one I just started messing with today and man are some of these super helpful! Especially AS3Trace=1. Holy toldeo! If you know what to look for (i.e. memory allocation table numbers representing certain objects) you can really track rouge code you’re unsure of to just about the start of it’s shenanigans. [...]

Hi,

I have a huge application in AS3 and facing a crash problem since some time. I tried using AS3Trace=1 in mm.cfg with and without TraceOutputBuffered=1, but I cannot see all the logs in flashlog as the file size keeps increasing and goes in GBs over time, causing my computer to slow down. Can you please advice as how do I use it properly in order to investigate my crash problem.
