Flip4Mac updates includes Silverlight capability

Business IT - Technology

A new release of Telestream's Flip4Mac Windows Media software for Mac OS X delivers support for Apple's Leopard and Microsoft's Silverlight.

Most commonly used is the free version that adds WMV playback capability to QuickTime. The release of version 2.2 has been awaited since the arrival of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, but it also brings compatibility with a wider variety of web sites delivering video content thanks in part to a new JavaScript browser plugin.

Improvements to the paid versions that also allow export include up to five times faster encoding on Intel-based Macs, improved video quality when using two-pass VBR encoding, and the ability to generate Silverlight applications.
