What is HTML5 Video?

HTML is the markup language that makes up every page on the web. The newest version, HTML5, includes specifications for a video tag, that is meant to allow website developers to add a video to a page the same way they would add an image. In order for this to work, web browser developers (Mozilla, Webkit, Opera, etc.) have to build the video functionality into their browsers. The W3C has created directions on how video should work in browsers, and it’s up to browser developers to follow those directions, so that video works the same across all browsers. This doesn’t always happen thanks to technology, legal, and financial choices made by browser developers, but so far no one’s varying too far from the specifications. However the specifications are still being changed and refined, so browsers developers have to keep up with that as well.

Android RTMP client player

hi

i just developed a rtmp player for android with flash builder 4.5 the source will be uploaded soon

input not working in flash player full screen mode

Did you know that the keyboard inputs will not work in flash player full screen mode. Do you know why?

The answer is simple. says
"Limited full-screen keyboard input (Flash Player 10)"

Currently, Adobe Flash Player does not allow keyboard input when displaying content in full-screen mode. Flash Player 10 changes this, allowing for a limited number of keys to be usable in full-screen mode. These include Tab, the Space bar, and the (up, down, left, right) arrow keys.

This change affects all SWF files played in Flash Player 10 or later. This includes SWF files published for earlier versions of Flash, so long as they are played within Flash Player 10. This also affects non-app content in AIR.

Mobile Web Viewport META Tag

Past few days i was tying to develop a mobile FB app for Android and Iphone.The hardest part in this application i feel is The UI . I spend almost 3 days to get the UI work proper. First i Used jQuery mobile Frame work; the frame work is cool but the documentation is very poor. $.mobile.ajaxEnabled function is never going to work.finaly i edit the source code and changed the ajaxEnabled=true to false :) . The next issue was the page size it render in different size in different browsers. an that was the hard part for me i don't see any solutions in jquery mobile site. after gogling an hour i fond a solution in mozilla web site . This will make jquery mobile full page and proper size.

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">

this meta tage is great and it solved my UI issue some usefull mobile meta tags bellow .

META directive	Example Value	Description
width	width=320 width=device-width	Logical width of the viewport, in pixels. The special device-width value indicates that the viewport height should be the screen width of the device.
height	height=480 height=device-height	Logical height of the viewport, in pixels. The special device-height value indicates that the viewport height should be the screen height of the device.

Amazon SES integration services

I have integrated several opensource softwares with amazon ses bulk mail service. If you need to integrate your custom script or software to talk to amazon SES, contact me.

Amazon Simple Email Service PHP example

finally Amazon release an affordable bulk mail service. Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES) (beta). this is very useful.

As far as pricing goes, Amazon will charge fees for the number of e-mails sent and data transfers. Pricing for SES is US$ 0.10 per thousand messages sent. A customer may also send 2,000 e-mail messages per day free of charge when these e-mails originate from Amazon EC2

here is the open source php class

http://sourceforge.net/projects/php-aws-ses/


Updates
===========

sample code

step 1
include and make a new instance of class

include_once('ses.php');
$con=new SimpleEmailService("your access key","your secretKey ");

step 2
if you are using ses first time you need to add a verified email adders to send mail from. following code will help you to add and verify email address

include_once('ses.php');
$con=new SimpleEmailService("your access key","your secretKey ");
$con->verifyEmailAddress('anilmathewm@mail.com');

once you run the code you will get a mail from amazon ses service to verify the email address by clicking a link.once you verify the code you can use the email address as sender email

step 3

if you want to check the verified email address then use the following code.

include_once('ses.php');
$con=new SimpleEmailService("your access key","your secretKey ");
$con->listVerifiedEmailAddresses();

step 4

how to send an email with Amazon Simple Email Service


include_once('ses.php');
$con=new SimpleEmailService("your access key","your secretKey ");
$con->listVerifiedEmailAddresses();

$m = new SimpleEmailServiceMessage();
$m->addTo('anilmathewm@mail.com');
$m->setFrom('anilmathewm@mail.com');
$m->setSubject('Hello, world!');
$m->setMessageFromString('This is the message body.');
$con->sendEmail($m);


NOTE:

most impotent


If you have not yet requested production access to Amazon SES, then you will only be able to send email to and from verified email addresses. For more information, go to the Developer Guide.
