Jeg var egentlig ikke klar over, at der var dukket en Beta 2 op af Flash Player 10.1 Beta og ved egentlig heller ikke hvornår den landende, men her er den

Nu er det muligt at pre-downloade Flash Player 10.1.

10.1 er optimeret på et helt bestemt punkt, nemlig H.264 Video Hardware Acceleration. Dette flytter meget af energien der bruges til at afspille flash film til grafikkortet. Mange vil kunne opleve et meget lavere CPU forbrug og en mere responsiv computer.

Der kræves dog at man opdaterer drivere til ens grafikkort og at ens kort er understøttet.

Bemærk dog at ikke alle producenter er ude med en driver der understøtter Flash H.264 Video Hardware Acceleration.

Dette er stadig kun en en pre-release, dvs. den endelige version kan få et andet build number. Selv har jeg ikke kunnet installere denne pre-download, det kan dog være i andre har mere held med det

I har sikkert læst at Flash 10.1 vil være tilgængelig, på et hav af mobile enheder samt GPU acceleration til mange enheder der benytter nVidia chips. Bl.a. de nye netbooks med ION vil i realiteten kunne afspille 720p samt 1080p HD materiale.

En spiller der har valgt ikke at være med i denne flash mobile verden er Apple, ingen ved med sikkerhed hvorfor de har takket nej i første omgang, men rygterne går på at de vil komme til at miste salg i deres App Store, hvis folk i stedet vælger at spille en flash baseret version af et bestemt spil, frem for at købe dette.

Det kan dog hurtigt give hovedpine for Apple, nu når Android, Palm og Nokia vil tilbyde flash på deres enheder i starten og i løbet af 2010.
