Video Compatibility with iPad / iPhone is being Implemented

dthigpen — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 11:04:12 +0000

Good news. We're currently implementing embedded video compability for viewers of the web site use iPhones and iPads. The code and player for it are up and running and when a video is available in the format neccesary for the iPhone/iPad, it'll automatically display the video instead of the usual message about needing up upgrade your Flash Plug-in.

This requires a seperate transcoding of all videos to an additional format, so please be patient while we backport existing content for compatibility, all new content will be published in both neccesary formats from the start.
