The first is adobe repository not flash itself. Adobe may have more
packages for linux there, but they have only flash ATM. The name says
nothing about flash. The advantage is that when you have flash
package from repository any newer version of flash will install
automatically with system updates.
Second is directly the binary package with flash. It will never auto
update.

Ok, these details of Your last two comments I have to study. The thing
what I did is, I tried to install Flash Plugin/or Flash for Linux from
the Adobe Home Page. First just clicking to the Link "YUM for Linux",
which suggests the download of the Flash Player of
"adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch.rpm", then I clicked to this file,
RPM opened and installed - I thought, this were the Flash Player
install. As this didn't work correctly, as previously described, I
clicked to "RPM fuer andere Linux Distributionen" , then I got
"flash-plugin-11.2.202.297-release.x86_64.rpm" and clicked on this file,
RPM installed. Now -so far I have seen- it's possible to watch all
Youtube videos with F19-Firefox. That's my story, what I did really by
doing as described in the Adobe Homepage, I don't know. But I want to
learn something about RPM, Yum and the backgrounds, there Your comments
are very helpful. Thanks. Kind Regards

there is the version number "http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch.rpm";
serviced, which does not work for Firefox/F19 correctly, not all Youtube files
can be played, my error that I didn't give a detailed test description.
"Slow down a bit, please." That's something I find myself telling people more
often recently.
There's a lot of unnecessary confusion in this thread.
You can also read the other reply I've typed in a few minutes ago, but the
package you've
installed, adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch.rpm, is just a repository
definition package,
which gives you access to a repository that contains the one and only
flash-plugin package.
You're not done with installing the adobe-release-x86_64 package. You need an
additional
"yum install flash-plugin" to download and install the actual Flash package.
The next try was "RPM fuer andere Linux Distributionen". There one gets the
version "http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.2.202.297/flash-plugin-11.2.202.297-release.x86_64.rpm";.
This Version runs in my F19_64 configuration (Firefox/F19_64)
That's the same one. Even if the checksum may be different, the contents are
exactly the same:
$ rpmdev-diff flash-plugin-11.2.202.297-release.x86_64.rpm /var/cache/yum/x86_64/19/adobe-linux-x86_64/packages/flash-plugin-11.2.202.297-release.x86_64.rpm
$
The differencies I have noticed is that Youtrube files i.e, where there is a
"sign"or "trade mark" like "vesa" on it, I could not play with x86_64-1.0-1, but
I can these Videos play with 11.2.202.297-release.x86_64. I didn't install via
command line, I installed simply clicking on the downloaded file and had rpm
doing this work.
Kind Regards
You're comparing wrong packages there. As explained above. You haven't had Flash
installed
when you tried the videos for the first time. You've had just the adobe-release
package.
