Use Adobe Video Player To Watch Video Offline


Sites ranging from YouTube to MySpace to MSN to Yahoo Video use Flash Player to stream videos online. The problem with this is you cannot view the video offline until you download the video.

Analysts hailed the new Adobe Video player, which is due to become available to consumers over the next several months, as a technology breakthrough by allowing consumers to download and carry video from the Web to computers to mobile phones, while ensuring programmers can deliver advertising and track video usage.

Adobe Video Player can get a boost as lunched in market as rivals like Windows Media Player from Microsoft Corp., QuickTime from Apple Inc. and RealPlayer from RealNetworks Inc. run on a range of devices but have none of the offline tracking features.

The Adobe Video Player could ease tensions of piracy by giving consumers a convenient way to watch, and even, in certain instances, to edit, video content, while assuring media owners they can retain ultimate control over where the video ends up.

Adobe officials said they have relied on a set of familiar, openly accessible technologies to create Adobe Video Player and will distribute the software, for free, using the same viral strategy that made Adobe’s Flash and Acrobat into the most popular ways to view video or read documents, respectively.

Adobe Media Player offers higher-quality Flash video, full-screen playback and the ability to be disconnected from the Web — on airplanes, for example. Viewers also can search for shows or share their ratings of shows with other viewers and automatically download new episodes of shows.

The Adobe Video Player offers a way for established media companies to securely offer ad-supported video but also independent video producers, podcasters and home movie makers.
