In what promises to boost video quality in desktop, mobile, and embedded devices, Adobe announced that it has added H.264 support to its popular Flash Player software. "Flash Player 9, Update 3 beta," available for download from Adobe's Labs website, supports Linux, OS X, and Windows.

H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10 (ISO/IEC 14496-10), is already widely used on the Internet, and is also the mandatory format for the HD-DVD and Blu-ray video disc formats. (An IEEE overview of the standard can be downloaded in PDF format here.)

In a statement on its website, Adobe Labs said, "H.264 delivers excellent video quality across the entire bandwidth spectrum, from 3G (mobile phones) to HD (broadcast) and everything in between." The broadest distribution of H.264 has been via Apple's QuickTime, included in that company's iTunes, iPods, and Windows/Macintosh QuickTime Player, Adobe notes.
