HOW CAN I CREATE HW ACCELERATED WEB VIDEO? It is called Adobe "STAGE VIDEO"

[Stears555]

Hello guys!

How can I create a web video with flash player, which is HW accelerated?

I know that the solution is the so called Adobe "STAGE VIDEO".

Is that technology supported by JW player?

Thanks for your reply!

not supported by jw yet, flow player does

Hello dear old Poisondeathray!

Can you write a short full example in HTML code?

[poisondeathray]

There are examples in the link

There are plenty of tutorials, documentation, examples for Flowplayer <use search!>

Stage Video seems to offer zero improvement for my DSL connection. In fact it was slower with lots of stops with loading symbol showing.

Pretty much what I've said all along...

The point is:
1. You create a web video in Flash (using standard h.264 codec), maybe add some swf graphics or not. *At this point, THERE IS NO "ACCELLERATION" involved.
2. You post to the web server and give the server a script to hint at using JW player, etc. (see the comments section in that longtail video link pdr mentioned). *At this point, THERE IS NO "ACCELLERATION" involved.
3. Your end user goes to the site and clicks/starts the video link
4. The video is DL'd/streamed to the client's browser/player (Flash player, JW, etc). *While the DL/streaming might be "accellerated", this is wholely dependent upon the user's DL speed infrastructure, and (assuming DL BR is greater than the average BR of the video) still won't "ACCELLERATE" the video, which depends on the PTS (presentation time stamp) of the video to play out in realtime.
5. The client's player negotiates with the hardware if possible, and the hardware decodes the h.264. *This is the only point that involves ACCELLERATION, and is dependent upon the chosen player, API, and hardware/drivers.
6. The player composites/displays the decoded h.264 video

btw, is there a particular reason you are YELLING your subject title?

All stage video applications accelerate the video through supported video cards.

Read about this: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/stagevideo.html

The Video-card acceleration reduces the CPU usage by 85-90%

[Cornucopia]

All stage video applications accelerate the video through supported video cards.

The "video applications" talked about refer to the PLAYERS (specifically, Flash player, JW, etc). And use of the term "accelerate the video" is really skating on thin ice. The video isn't accelerated. The DECODING of h.264/MPEG2/VP8/VC-1 is accelerated. And that is really only to take the excess burden off the CPU (which ought to be able to handle the DECODING anyway, just not in an "accelerated" fashion).

Yeah, I've already read that reference (and more). Seems like you really aren't reading my posts though, so I'm done.
