Hello All, My name is John Riske I'm a long-time subscriber to the video blogging group, and a first-time poster. I work for a company called Swarmcast. We develop technology to enable the distribution of high quality video over the Internet.
I've been more-or-less of a lurker in the group, surveying what's important and of interest to video bloggers. Much of what we've gleaned from the conversation has gone into the development of a new, free offering of ours, called Autobahn HD for Flash. We launched it last week, and you can read the <http://www.swarmcast.com/news> press release here <http://swarmcast.com/news> and see the Autobahn HD for Flash player here <http://swarmcast.com> . Autobahn HD for Flash is the first Flash player to feature full-screen video bolstered by network acceleration and adaptive bitrate streaming, which protects against rebuffering. All of this ensures that each viewer receives the best possible video quality for their Internet connection. So - what does all this mean for you? If you're interested in getting the player source code to modify our player or create your own Flash HD player, you can email me at john(at)swarmcast(dot)com If you want to use our player to showcase your high quality video, we have a bunch resources available at www.getautobahn.com/developers <http://www.getautobahn.com/developers> , including instructions on how to set up your FLVs so that you can take advantage of the adaptive bitrate streaming and get an embeddable player for your site. We're very interested in engaging with the online video world at large, so if you come up with something cool or have any questions or comments, leave us a note at www.getautobahn.com/developers <http://www.getautobahn.com/developers> . Best Regards, John Riske [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
