On2 Releases Java Player
August 05, 2004
New York, NY - On2 Technologies, Inc., The Duck Corporation, has released its Java player technology for license. The player works with On2's VPX video compression technology.
The TrueMotion Streaming Java Applet 1.0 is a TrueMotion video player written in pure Java. The Applet offers a truly cross-platform solution -- it plays on Windows, MacOS, Linux, and other environments. As on other platforms, the TrueMotion codec outperforms all other competing video compression technologies.
Unlike most media players, the TrueMotion Applet requires no player installation. The Applet is compact and downloads quickly to the user's browser, making for a seamless user experience, the company describes. Just as exciting, no special server software is required to serve media files to the Applet over networks. The Applet streams over HTTP, so it can be deployed on any Web server, thereby leveraging customers' existing infrastructure investments. The TrueMotion Streaming Java Applet 1.0 provides an ideal solution for online advertising and other Web-based video applications.
The Truemotion Streaming Java Applet 1.0 can now be licensed from On2.
