I just wish the Flash folks had followed everyone else in the planet and
impmented an H-264 variant instead of mucking about with YET ANOTHER
niche codec.
Yeah, I know On2Vp6 is supposed to have some nice attributes, but I'm
sick and tired of trying to support a zillion variants for client
delivery of internet video.
It's hard enough making excellent video. Then to discover you have to
spend so much more time trying to put it into a format that "works" for
the great unwashed BROWSER/LMS/PDA/CELPHONE/WHATEVER audience is a royal
pain.
I'm starting to long for the crappy old VHS days.
At least once the work was done you knew what to do with it and you knew
that once you did, ANYBODY could see it.
Sheesh.
