One of the technologies used to watch videos on computers will be available very soon for most so-called smartphones and smart phones.Flash software is used in the playback of about 75% of the videos projected on the Internet and has become the key to the operation of websites such as YouTube and Google Video.
Until now, many smartphones and notebook computers use a version of "light" from the program due to limited processing power of these devices.
It is envisaged that the new program work for both smart phones to personal computers.
Adobe, the creator of Flash, said that in 2010, the software should be available in most phones, though the Apple iPhone continue to bypassing it."The range of applications for personal processors we've seen, we will now phones," ,Ben Wood, director of mobile research company CCS Insight.
"We will be able to access very interesting material that has been designed and developed by Web designers.
According to Adobe, Flash is one of the programs that are typically installed on computers. Is around 98% of personal processors and almost 75% of Internet videos played through Flash.
This program is behind the BBC iPlayer and some 70% of Internet gaming.
However, until now, the full version of program has not been available on smartphones.
Flash 10.1, known as the new version, developed by the boom produced by the cell phone, said Wood.
In addition, he said, software developers and users have joined their voices to hold over the experience of accessing the Internet on a personal computer to a smartphone.
"We are giving a response to that need," said Anup Muraka Adobe.
"Years ago, finding information on cellphones was almost nonexistent, no one cared to have the same tools they enjoyed in the desktop computer in their phones," said Muraka.
"But in recent years, a high level of development has extended to these devices."
CCS Insight report predicted that by the end of 2009, 44% of cell phone users will access information through their phones, while it is expected that smart phones accounted for 17% of the over one billion devices produced in 2009.
"Cell phones have gone from being a hearing aid to a visual artifact that you put in front of you," Wood said.
The new software ensures the reproduction of high definition video and Tabi can be used in touch screens.
This is the main product of an initiative called "Open Screen Project (Open Screen Project), which promotes the creation of a flexible media platform, that can play movies and games on both computers and phones.The intention of the project is to develop flexible software that allows developers to make the encodings only once and not several times for various formats.
The Open Screen Project is supported by about 50 companies, including Google and Nokia.
The new software will be available for Windows Mobile, Palm webOS and operating systems that include at the end of this year, Windows, Macintosh and Linux.
Trial Software for Google Android and the popular Symbian operating systems will be available early 2010.
"We need cooperation from Apple. For now Safari (Apple's web browser) does not support the use of any extension (on iPhone)."But we would like to see him there." For Wood, the time is coming.
