So if your building a iplayer for an exotic device platform, do get in touch.
Quick questions:
Adobe Flash is prohibited on non-PC systems, is the BBC suggesting we
violate Adobe's EULA or just not use the streaming version?
Hold on a sec, we would never suggest breaking Adobe's EULA.
No one is suggesting porting Flash to a non-PC system. You can play
certain flash files using a bunch of other players. For example VLC,
Mplayer, FFMpeg, Gnash, etc will all play Flash 4 files. Gnash can even
render the animation and interaction of Flash 7 and 8 files.
Flash playback and even creation isn't exclusive to Adobe, just like PDF.
