Beta Flash Player 11 (including 64-bit) and Air 3 (with Molehill 3D) have been released
Main features:
- 64-bit support for all platforms (win, lnx, mac). At the moment only for flash player.
- Molehill 3D . Everything is clear, there was a lot of topics. There is a small change in the API, compared with the preview.
')
- H.264 / AVC, native json - was in preview 2.
- Captive Runtime for AIR - similar to adobe.connect to capture the contents of windows, the desktop, etc. Useful for screencasts.

For FP 11 and Air 3:
- Molehill 3D APIs . About this technology has already been discussed a lot in Habré.
- Cubic Bezier Curves. Native curves.
- 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.
- Secure random bytes generator.
- Flash Access Content Protection Support for mobile devices, Protected HTTP Dynamic Streaming (HDS) and Flash Access Enhancements - all that is associated with DRM from adobi.
- Native Text Input UI. For mobile devices.
- System.processCPUUsage . Finally, you can see how much real power the USB flash drive is eating, and not in fps parrots.
Only for FP 11:
- Support 64-bit - as promised.
- Async bitmap decoding. This feature of decoding images in a separate stream of the player is already present in Air 2.6.
- TLS (Transport Layer Security) sockets, as well as socket progress events.
Only for Air 3:
- Stage Video Hardware Acceleration - by analogy with FP 10.2.
- Captive Runtime
- HD surround sound - for 7.1 sound for AirTV.
More awaited:
- WebWorkers - it is very strange that they did not enter this beta, apparently some bugs got out at the last moment.
- HID support (steering wheels, joysticks).
- New data types - float, float4.
- WebM - there are rumors, but they promise nothing =)
UPD: I forgot to say that linux for Molehill uses only software rendering (SwiftShader), without using a GPU (unlike video playback, which is still used on some video cards), so do not be surprised by the high workload of the proc. Explain very big problems with drivers. The problem is being seriously studied, perhaps there will be changes in version 12.
