<br clear="all"><br>hello , I thought a direct retrieval URL for wiph plugins would ease the deployment for theora/vorbis only broadcasting websites.<br><br>let me explain : <br><br>- When my website launch a javascript player such as the Kaltura one. but the javascript cannot find a way to play the theora video because java is not installed (10% of my visitors, 30% of IE users) and thus no solution without installation is available; I would like to automatically propose to launch a browser to get the right plugin depending on their platform.<br>
<br>So something like <a href="http://get.xiph.org">http://get.xiph.org</a> which would detect the OS through Useragent and start the download of the right plugin : <br><br>- either a DMG for mac ( need to package a .pkg installer ) <br>
<br>- or the dschow on Windows<br><br>- Linux either for old firefox don't have problems as they have native support<br><br>it could be even enlarged in the future to show a message to mobile users explaining their platform don't have support for freecodecs<br>
<br><br>To resume something a bit like : <br><br><a href="http://get.adobe.com/fr/flashplayer/">http://get.adobe.com/fr/flashplayer/</a><br><br><br>A guess some have already thought about this ? <br>
