DivX browser video

Brower based applications are the future. No longer do we need to install all sorts of programs on our own machines, just a browser and a bunch of extensions/plugins will be enough.

Check out the DivX Browser Plug-In for example. And put it to full screen mode! In my opinion that’s really amazing!

Lucas Gonze says it best:

1. JavaScript API
2. A plugin from a much smaller vendor than the usual suspects. There’s no way these guys can count on installed base to sell their plugin, so if they make it it’s because they did something special.
3. The DivX folk have a disturbingly unparanoid approach for a multimedia vendor. For example the plugin apparently has a feature to save files to disk for later replay. Most plugin vendors try to make it harder to do this, as a form of better-than-nothing DRM.
