Comments on: A quick look at h.264 Metadata http://www.brooksandrus.com/blog/2007/08/29/a-quick-look-at-h264-metadata/ This is the blog of Brooks Andrus. Here, at irregular intervals, you may find digital noise centered around the activities of an early 21st century technologist. I work for TechSmith Corporation, but this web space and the views found on it are entirely my own.

I’m finding that alot of my traffic is coming from tag pages. I didn’t see any settings for true/false with regard to tag pages. Thx. What about tag pages?

A beta version of the new player, Flash Player 9 Update 3 Beta 2 "Moviestar", is available from Adobe Labs.

I realize that it will be important for Adobe to communicate exactly what is and what is not supported. But this is a really big deal for Flash video and the online video market.

You can not inject this meta data yourself since the Flash Player merely reports the structure of an mp4 file as it is. What you will be able to modify are the tag properties in a file, f.ex. by using iTunes. You can also add timed text tracks using tools like mp4box.

]]> By: ★ bcdef.org ★ » A gathering of commentary on Flash Player support of AAC/h.264 http://www.brooksandrus.com/blog/2007/08/29/a-quick-look-at-h264-metadata/comment-page-1/#comment-19510 ★ bcdef.org ★ » A gathering of commentary on Flash Player support of AAC/h.264 Mon, 10 Sep 2007 05:26:42 +0000 http://www.brooksandrus.com/blog/2007/08/29/a-quick-look-at-h264-metadata/#comment-19510 [...] Given the tumult of the change in my day job, it’s been difficult for me to keep up with the fallout of Adobe’s announcement of rudimentary support of AAC and h.264 codecs in a beta release of Flash Player 9. (For a start, you can read the formal announcement and/or the more technical explanation of the limitations from Tinic Uro, an engineer on the Player team.) In the two weeks hence, there’s been a lot of talk about the implications. As far as I can gather, no major player in web video has made the beta player a requirement to any public-facing player, but it wouldn’t surprise me if we see this soon - YouTube may have name recognition, but undoubtedly the video-on-the-web market is a cutthroat arena with many competitors. Of course, offering h.264 support means a potential migration from the current status quo - that of On2’s VP6 codec, supported in Flash Player since version 8. On2 of course isn’t taking all of this lying down. They’ve released an FAQ that highlights how sticking with their codec is still advantageous in specific scenarios. There’s even a community that prefers to sidestep the Flash Player entirely in favor of streaming DivX. Some even see Microsoft’s impact on the decision. But all said, there’s little question where the momentum lies given the rabid response to h.264’s inclusion into the Player. I’m excited to see where this goes. There’s already some interesting demos, write-ups and commentary on the subject and there’s certainly a lot of dust yet to settle, especially given Adobe’s related announcement of Flash Media Server 3. For those interested in exploring the new technology, understand that there are some important limitations to the beta release. Most noticeable is that only a subset of h.264 movies are currently playable. A significant number of encoding tools place the index information of an h.264 .mov file at the end of the file - this needs to be moved to the front in order for the file to be playable in a SWF. Renaun Erickson has created an AIR application which attempts to do this for you. For more information, begin with Tinic’s article, as well as an optimization note from Adobe. Also a note on metadata support.
