Get Websites to Serve HTML5 Video to Safari on Mac OS X. Friday, 12 November 2010 The iPad User Agent String Trick First, some practical advice. In my piece last week about uninstalling Flash Player from Mac OS X, I suggested using Chrome as a fall-back for viewing Flash content when you need it. This works because Chrome uses its own self-contained version of Flash, not the system-wide version. This works, but I’ve since found an even better workaround for Safari. First, make sure you’ve turned on Safari’s Develop menu. This trick makes video work in Safari on Mac OS X — with no Flash — from Flickr, Vimeo embeds, TED, MSNBC, and probably any other site that offers video that works on the iPad. I’ve set a custom keyboard shortcut for this menu command in System Preferences. When you switch the user agent string like this in Safari, it only persists for that particular window.
That this works for so many sites shows that Safari on Mac OS X is perfectly capable of playing a lot of video on the web that seemingly requires Flash. The Politics.

Override public function addEventListener(type:String, listener:Function, useCapture:Boolean = false, priority:int = 0.0, useWeakReference:Boolean = false):void Registers an event listener object with an EventDispatcher object so that the listener receives notification of an event. You can register event listeners on all nodes in the display list for a specific type of event, phase, and priority. After you successfully register an event listener, you cannot change its priority through additional calls to addEventListener().
To change a listener's priority, you must first call removeListener(). Then you can register the listener again with the new priority level. Keep in mind that after the listener is registered, subsequent calls to addEventListener() with a different type or useCapture value result in the creation of a separate listener registration. You cannot register an event listener for only the target phase or the bubbling phase. Parameters. Open Source Media Framework. Tour de Flex - Adobe Flex.org. Flash-based AR Gets High-Quality Markerless Upgrade. One of the turning points in the evolution of augmented reality (AR) was the porting of the ARToolKit - an open? Source software library for building AR experiences - to the widely accessible Adobe Flash platform. The toolkit allowed Flash developers to easily create computer vision AR applications and opened the door to a flood of AR development. These days, brands looking to use AR to market their products have looked to AR vendors for solutions, and now one of the largest - Total Immersion - is now also offering Flash support within its proprietary AR development software.
D'Fusion, the company's suite of AR development software, has previously been available to develop desktop, Web-based, mobile and public kiosk-based AR applications. With the release of D'Fusion for Adobe Flash, users of the software will now be able to build AR applications for the Web that can run without installing extra plugins beyond Flash.
