"The channel will run a marathon of all 12 episodes after the premiere of Cinema Verite, HBO’s new fiction film - with James Gandolfini, Diane Lane and Tim Robbins - about the dynamics between the filmmakers and the Louds."
Towes [Adobe] noted in a blog post that Adobe is adding HTTP Live Streaming support to Flash Media Server and Flash Media Live Encoder. "By adding support for HLS within the Flash Media Server, Adobe is reducing the publishing complexity for broadcasters who need to reach browsers supporting HLS through HTML5 (such as Safari) or devices where Adobe Flash is not installed."There are still a lot of difficulties in the streaming video world but this makes things a lot easier.
In other words, instead of trying in vain to persuade Apple to build Flash into iOS, or losing potential Flash Media Server customers to some other iOS-compatible solution, Adobe seems to be implicitly acknowledging that content publishers need Flash-free video streaming.
