[haiku-web] Re: Update to the videos page - easy task?

Indeed it would be nice - however I don't think there is much we can do. The FakeFlash plugin using VLC doesn't work. I know all the vids I've made are mp4, so we could host those on haiku-files.org - of course they'll be bigger files.

On another thought, has anyone from Haiku officially contacted Adobe about getting Flash support. Linux has support for flash ... Is it open sourced ? Anything we can reverse engineer ?

More and more sites are using flash - I'd hate to see Haiku become a 2nd class citizen on the web.

I'll have a look at this today. Maybe setup a Haiku YouTube channel for people to add things - also I think we should use flickr and get ppl to tag their photos with say haikuos and then display those photos on our site.

I would actually recommend Picasa at this point simply because we're
already maintaining a set of galleries there, and Remi was working on
a way to embed the gallery into Drupal :)

It might also be an idea to look at alternatives to flash-based video
hosting... what with Haiku lacking a supported Flash player. ;)

haiku-files.org has an almost obscene amount of bandwidth available so
that might be a possible solution. In that case it would also probably
be worth standardising on single multimedia codec and file format well
supported under Haiku.
