There are a zillion different kinds of hw accel..

On standard linux I believe flash uses gl for scaling to fullscreen..

However, plans for h264 decode hw accel on linux were canceled, I think..

...which is sadly an excellent argument why the current Flash plugin governance model sucks. It's not enough they don't want to do it, they don't let anyone else do it. What they don't see, or don't care at this point is that this (coupled with the 64bit debacle) pushes linux towards the flash-averse camp, and that can boomerang back in a year or two.

They seem to push everyone at this point, it's not like it's all honey over here, either (W). Instabilities, low support, hitches, you name it. We all know how the fruit stands on this issue, too.

IMO, it can't die soon enough. It's not like there's nobody around to carry the feature torch. Besides. How many people say "flash" but mean YouTube(s) plus (maybe) a few games?

They should have lobbied for a tighter integration with browsers or gone outright open (fully open, not the Open Screen type of open-to-outside-help-to-get-us-out-from-the-hole-we-dug-ourselves-and-then-fallen-into). As they are now, I sincerely believe that the only thing keeping them alive is inertia (though inertia can keep things alive for very long periods of time as seen in the MS world).

the core libraries for h264 acceleration are located in /lib/dsp

h264vdec_sn.dll64P mp4vdec_sn.dll64P
baseimage.dof h264venc_sn.dll64P ringio.dll64P
cexec.out ipp_sn.dll64P usn.dll64P

kevloral: Wonderful, we tried that same hex editing trick on the old N810 flashplayer and it was able to get past the version checks, but it didn't actually work with any of the sites. It's good to see that the N900 version works when hacked.

Flash 10.1 brings some significant new delivery methods

HTTP Dynamic Streaming and Adobe Stratus 2.0

These will help reduce costs for video sites so expect them to implement them sooner or later...

I wonder if the Fremantle Flash can be backported to Diablo...
