And again about the new features of Flash Player 10

Despite the fact that news about the release of Flash Player 10 was already published on Habré, it seemed to me wrong that the focus was only on 3D, filters and the new engine for text blocks.
In my opinion, the new features left overs are even more interesting for the average user.

Color Profile Support: Now graphics can be displayed according to your ICC profile. Quite expected with the appearance of Photoshop Express.

Support for large bitmaps: now you can use bitmaps with a maximum size of 16 megapixels, with a size on one side of not more than 8191 pixels.

Turning on hardware acceleration by the HTML parameter: By integrating your flash movie into a web page, you can set a parameter that enables graphics to be displayed on the screen with hardware acceleration using the GPU. Again, it will be great for all applications such as Photoshop Express and Premiere Express.

Dynamic streaming: working together with Flash Media Server, this feature will allow you to dynamically change the bitrate based on data on the channel load and the CPU to prevent pauses in the video download.

Such long-awaited and useful features:
Work with local files (!!): users can open and save data from a local disk without having to send them to the server first. The data inside the flash can be represented as bytearray or text, so that together with the new text layout engine we are waiting for the appearance of web versions of text editors (well, at least RTF should live there easily, other office XML formats, why not ..). Well, again, all for Photoshop Express.
To this you can add and support for a clipboard for text and a context menu for clipboard operations.

A new audio codec: Adobe has finally thought better of it and added an open audio codec. Previously, data recorded from a microphone was encoded by a proprietary Nellymoser Asao codec. Now open and free Speex is available.

New sound creation features: the ability to play dynamically generated sound using the event listener of the Sound object. www.kaourantin.net/2008/05/adobe-is-making-some-noise-part-2.html

And finally (!!!): the new flash allows you to create p2p connections, which, together with the ability to open and save files, gives you truly unlimited possibilities. whydoeseverythyuckuck.com/2008/05/adobe-introduces-p2p-flash-player-kills.html
Adobe once acquired a company that created an analogue of Skype and now the developments are apparently included in the Flash Player.

In general, with a new flash each author of photoshop, max, soundforge, vord and skype will be easily accessible to tens of percent of web users.

Ps. Flash magazine also publishes the names of new classes and methods for new features.
