Who is moving to FF 3.5 / HTML 5 Video Tag Support

As a VOD software vendor we get to look at a lot of video stuff every day but the new HTML 5 video tag support on FF 3.5 (and hope it moves to other browsers) is one of the best.

You can see more info at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Usi...deo_in_Firefox

Going forward that will be one of the codec we will support on our VOD. So

VC1 (Silverlight)
H264 (Flash , QT, iPOD)
Theora (FF 3.5)

Hi Jay :winkwink:

HTML 5 will be adopted by the other browsers eventually. That much is inevitable IMHO, and as a whole will change how we do a lot of stuff. I know I'll be learning everything I can about it so when it does become common place, I'll know what to do with it.

HTML 5 is going to change a lot more than video too.

I like the dialog element.
It will allow you to post conversations like this.

Code:

<dialog>

 <dt> Costello

 <dd> Look, you gotta first baseman?

 <dt> Abbott

 <dd> Certainly.

 <dt> Costello

 <dd> Who's playing first?

 <dt> Abbott

 <dd> That's right.

 <dt> Costello

 <dd> When you pay off the first baseman every month, who gets the money?

 <dt> Abbott

 <dd> Every dollar of it. 

</dialog>

Kind of silly, but I can imagine a couple uses for it. and there are dozens more new ways to play with HTML.

HTML 5 is still being authored but there's no reason it will not be adopted. Firefox is already supporting it and of course IE will lag, but there will be hacks. It degrades nicely anyway.

It's also going to help a lot with accessibility and the mobile market. At least it will help developers.

I can't argue with that.
