[videoblogging] H264 still free till 2016

2010-02-03 Thread Jay dedman
Steve of Elbows has mentioned this day several times. H264 will now officially be royalty free to users for a little while longer. My cynical read: they're trying to make sure H264 is the video standard online...then they can charge out the wazoo.

Yes, some flash players can play H.264 encoded movies - it doesn't matter if they have .mp4, .m4v or .mov as the extension. What matters is that they're encoded with H.264. The JW FLV Media Player http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Media_Player and the FlowPlayer http://flowplayer.org/
