HTTP Video Streaming - Day 2

The Player

Quicktime player (plugin) has been very disappointing to our experience. With Flash supports H.264, that motivates the redesign of delivery interface. Two Flash video players that I have been interested in are JW Player and Flowplayer. So far, JW Player is incredibly popular of its easy of use, but I seem to be in favor of Flowplayer with its extensibility and rich API .. of course, as from a developer point of view -:). Moreover, supporting Accessibility is a must! So far, I am having success on implementing an (more) accessible version of Flowplayer with HTTP Streaming option. I am happy with this progress, next is to work on securing the content.
  • good starting point: http://tinyurl.com/y9woalw
  • support HTTP (pseudo) streaming: http://tinyurl.com/y9jw22w
** progress HTML5 is very promising as well. Having my eyes on it .. fyi: YouTube's HTML5 -- http://tinyurl.com/oojkzr
