Answer 1

You can't do that.

What you can do is that you can change your flash code. Assuming it is this issue, you could work around it by calling Camera#setMode with different resolution parameters, like advised in that thread. The thread says that these resolution parameters will cause the issue:

320x240 640x480 1024x768 1152x864 1280x720 1280x768 1280x960 1280x1024 1920x1080

whereas if you change the param even for one pixel, it would work.

There might be other bugs there too (at least there are some open issues) - you could advise end user with chrome to disable pepperflash, if you want to.

Answer 2

Well, here is an intersting short article about Flash.

And here is a fiddle to detect PepperFlash. Fact is that you cannot disable the usage of the plugin PeeperFlash from the client-side. For this you would need far more rights than your browser will give you.

Only way is to disable it using the plugin settings of chrome.
