Super Duper Desktop FLV Player added to Softpedia Database!
I wrote in a previous post about an Adobe AIR Desktop FLV Player that I developed a while back for quick viewing of Adobe FLV files. I’m happy to announce the app has been officially added to the Softpedia database! You can now download the file from either Adobe’s Marketplace or from Softpedia. Read more »
Super Duper Desktop FLV Player for Adobe AIR
I had started creating AIR apps since the first beta release and I love how easy it is to create a simple customized tool quickly to help with day to day activities. Until now I’ve been using the WimpyFLV Player with limited success. It was ok, but would have issues playing back files on the network. So I developed my own player that is simple and straight to the point. For development purposes I have the dimensions of the video file in the upper right hand corner and the length of the video in seconds. This helps since you can’t just view the properties of an FLV to get this information. Check out the link below to download the .air file.
Adobe Open Screen Project
Adobe takes it a step further and launches the Open Screen Project
“The Open Screen Project is working to enable a consistent runtime environment – taking advantage of Adobe® Flash® Player and, in the future, Adobe AIR™ — that will remove barriers for developers and designers as they publish content and applications across desktops and consumer devices, including phones, mobile internet devices (MIDs), and set top boxes.”
- Removing restrictions on use of the SWF and FLV/F4V specifications
- Publishing the device porting layer APIs for Adobe Flash Player
- Publishing the Adobe Flash® Cast™ protocol and the AMF protocol for robust data services
- Removing licensing fees – making next major releases of Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR for devices free
