Note:

Depending on the version of the browser that is being used, end users might need to move the plugin to the appropriate plugin folder.

What can be done with this preliminary release ?

- Video playback (ofcourse!)

- All cool features of Flash10 available now on TI platforms. Ex, Pixel bender is a very interesting way of using Flash's native way of rendering video, now with 3D (or arbitrary) effects. To see an example,
