Lin Evans Posted August 10, 2014 Author Report Posted August 10, 2014 Hi Tom, I can't verify the html call - it's the default from my Xara Web Developer and it's entirely possible it's Flash protocol. We will know more when YouTube gets its act together. Right now lots of people in the HTML5 beta group are having problems so there is apparently a ways to go before it's working properly.Best regards,Lin Quote

Lin Evans Posted August 10, 2014 Author Report Posted August 10, 2014 Hi Eric,Any browser can play a file directly from your hard drive. The file doesn't have to reside elsewhere nor does it have to be housed on a "website." As long as the html code has been generated and stored whether on your own hard disk or on a server drive somewhere across the world, the browser only needs to be pointed at the html file to play the selection. For example, when building a web site, generally programmers will test it on their own machine before uploading it to a host. As an example, just open Mozilla and click on "File" (upper left) then "Open File." and you will immediately be able to browse your entire hard disk or attached media types. If you have generated the proper html code, then clicking on the calling file (often index.htm) you can run that content regardless of whether it's located on your own system or on some other system anywhere on the internet. In the present case, the 60 fps video being tested with the browsers resides on my own hard disk in a folder so there is no "internet" involved nor is there any download, etc., it's just being played locally by the browser.Best regards,Lin Quote
