Re: [videoblogging] Is quicktime commited to browser presentation?

I've always liked the QT embed player as well... Been using it for years. 
I think I see your point... all I can say is that I hope the browser plugin evolves as well.
It's too important.  Even though the QT player has always been the
least obnoxious interface, i avoid it and even used to make QT skins as
an alternative to embeds but that is a bit time consuming. 
Being part web designer, I def understand the aesthetic/experience of
an embedded movie within an interface.

[videoblogging] Is quicktime commited to browser presentation?

2005-09-26 Thread doron
I'd like to question Apple's commitment and support for the quicktime  
plug-in for browsers.
It looks to me that there has been a major break through with the  
introduction of the H264 codec for video which is undoubtedly  
superior (my personal opinion) to codecs that precede it.
I noticed a shift in Apple's presentation policy for their QuickTime  
gallery site - movies are served only through the stand alone  
quicktime player.
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/guide/hd/
also, in QuickTime Guide,
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/guide/
movies are now available through launching QT player as well. (the  
link to it is a .mov file !)

Truth is that there is a current imbalance between Broadband - that  
has not been broaden fast enough to meet podcasts and video demands  
and the new and more accessible HD format (larger movie files  
basically). But still,  I think that viewing a mov file in a browser  
is a different experience. it has that unique look and feel,  
different navigation options, and a great web history that I wish  
apple will not fail to acknowledge and support, at least for as long  
as browsers are available in this rapid changed market.
