BBC trial Flash for video content!

BBC flash video Finally!! The BBC has caught up with the rest of the web and moved it's video player from the awful Real player to Flash!! A while ago Aral posted on how the BBC didn't get video on the web and at the time I agreed but understood that BBC isn't a normal website, and changing over may not be that simple. However the new player looks great and makes watching videos a breeze! You can also embed the videos into your blog (see below), just like YouTube and every other video site out there. From BBC NewsApparently I have to add ( the From BBC News bit!!!)So what do you think? Well tell them here Update: Apparently they started the trial in May and there are a few stories out there using it, including this video of Tomb Raider Legend. For more info have a look at this story.

Why not leave your own!

  1. Hey Rob, Yep, I was really happy when I heard they were doing this. It makes complete sense! :)
  2. Not too sure why they have to do a trial, like anyone is going to say the prefer Real player... Can't wait for the sports to move across!
