New YouTube Player on horizon, Blip.tv Upgrades
Posted on June 6th, 2007 by Joseph Nilo
From NewTeeVee:
YouTube is getting ready to release an update of its embeddable video player. It’s currently being tested, as users seem to be stumbling across embedded clips featuring the new player somewhat randomly over the past week. Google Operating System posted the screenshot below, and Google Blogoscoped has more screenshots.
It seems that YouTube is getting the benefit of features from the Google Video player. For instance, you can now skip ahead even if a video is not fully loaded. Andy Plesser at Beet.tv suggests that you can also craft URLs that will jump to a particular time in a clip, but I haven’t been able to confirm that yet.
