New Adobe Linux Flash Player Released

Submitted by srlinuxx on Wed, 08/22/2007 - 08:10.

There is a new beta of the Flash Player Update available. That's right: the beta is even available for Linux (same time as Windows and Mac).

This beta is affectionately named Moviestar due to these key new features:

H.264 video
AAC audio
Hardware-accelerated fullscreen video playback (new for Linux in this beta; Win/Mac had it in previous beta)

Yep-- fullscreen hardware acceleration during video playback using OpenGL/GLX on Linux, where available... and functional.
