The defacto standard > encoding for video these days is H_264, but it's a proprietary spec There used to be a draft back in 2007 recommending Theora for coming HTML5 ... but it was trashed after pressure of some companies (Adobe, Banana/Apple, ...) ... and now 9 years later we have 10 times more bloated browsers and still no usable standard, and most video pages still rudely cry for Flu$h. > You are *not* representative of the mass user base well :-D > and what works for you will not work for 99% of the rest of the world You are wrong. The Internet used more or less to work for 99% of the world ... the problem is that those 99% love to throw away something that works (proverb: "change the winning team ASAP") for no reason. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user --- Internet Rex 2.29 * Origin: capcity2.synchro.net - 502/875-8938 (1:2320/105.99) --- * BgNet 1.0b12 = CCO * KY/US * 502/875-8938 * capcity2.synchro.net --- Synchronet 3.15a-Linux ListGate 1.3 * Capitol City Online - Frankfort, KY - telnet://capitolcityonline.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
