More info on FMS3 (continuation of last post)

Well, with a little searching around I've got more info on FMS3. I knew I had read about some more info somewhere but just couldn't recall it when writing the last post.

Anyways, here's an informative PDF on the issue straight from Adobe. Along with an HTML version of all kinds of FAQ stuff on FMS3 (kinda like the PDF) and the press release is here.

The information is about 3 months old though... good for me to be right up on the times..

Anyways, I'd have to say that the most exciting features in there for me are:
- Server-side republish (even though you can kinda do this now, it's commonly requested)
- H.264 and AAC streaming support (going to be nice to get away from FLV's)
Speaking of that though, have you seen this post by Tinic about the new file types coming out? Neat.
- Improved performance (although I did mention this in the last post, I'm really happy about this)
- Mobile video delivery to Flash Lite 3 (this is very cool, looking forward to playing with this)

Delivery in the first quarter of next year? Sounds good, looking forward to it.

On a side note, if any of you have been visiting the newly released fmsguru.com site and tried the video tutorials and they all seem to be the same one.. I've fixed that problem now. They should all work as expected. Sorry for the glitch.
