Flash Player 10.3 released and updated Incubator Project (with Molehill 3D)

So, new in 10.3:

- Acoustic Echo Cancellation . Very long-awaited feature, support for FULL_DUPLEX, HALF_DUPLEX, etc. In my tests, everything works fine, with almost no load on the processor.



- Media Measurements . Gives real-time access to analytics — how the video is distributed, what audience it reaches and how often it plays.



- Native control panel, auto-update for MacOS, integration with browser privacy, including for cleaning flash-kukov.

')

There are only 32-bit versions for Android, Linux, MacOS, and Windows, 64-bit versions will be only for FP11 (3D).







At the moment, in preview 2, the following features are run in:



- Molehill 3D APIs . About this technology has already been discussed a lot in Habré.



- Cubic Bezier Curves. Native curves.



- Async bitmap decoding. This feature of decoding images in a separate stream of the player is already present in Air 2.6



- Large Bitmap Support. If earlier bitmats were limited in size (2880x2880), now the size is unlimited (well, I think, only with available memory for the plugin).



- JPEG-XR, ATF . The second format is a custom adobe format for textures.



- LZMA compression . In addition to deflate and zlib. In addition, now the flash drives themselves can be packed with lzma, which will reduce their size.



- G.711 codec . For telephony, etc. PCMA and PCMU are supported.



- H.264 / AVC SW for the camera . Previously, the camera stream was encoded only with the Sorenson VP6.



- Native JSON. In addition to native XML.



- Events pause / sleep / resume . To determine that the roller tab is active, and the device (desktop | mobile) is currently working with a flash movie.



- Tips for GC. Through System.pauseForGCIfCollectionImminent, you can tell GC to not rush to clean the memory during high-load operations. Later GC Hint API will be expanded.



- TLS (Transport Layer Security) sockets, as well as socket progress events.



- Secure random bytes generator.



In the next versions, WebWorkers support and new data types are expected: float and float4. Also, the developers want to enable WebM support, but they don’t name the deadlines, there are suspicions that due to problems with VP8 hardware acceleration.
