Today, Adobe gave a sneak peek into Flash Player 10 and showed off the new RTL, multi-column text engine, the new 3D features, and the new bitmap effect scripting language, Hydra.

Thanks Aral!
thanx a lot for liveblogging MAX keynote and the video, you rock ! ;-)
Great man! It makes it a little more bearable for those unable to attend MAX :)
Very interesting video – I love the liveblog!

Good effort, but the jumpcut video player just sucks. For some reason it’s not streaming properly, and they have set buffering to 0.1 seconds, so it’s really jumpy when buffering and trying to play. And pausing and waiting doesn’t help :(
Use something nicer, Brightcove or blip.tv player (or youtube if you really have to) next time. Thanks.
Thanks a lot to share this video ;)
Really really nice :) Thanks for blogging :)
Hi Erki:
Yeah, Jumpcut’s quality/streaming sucks but it’s better than no keynote video, right? :)
YouTube was down and unfortunately Viddler doesn’t handle the H.264 files that iMovie exports (and I don’t have an account with a different site at the moment.) I’m still looking for a good video-to-web workflow so hopefully things will improve.

Video of Astro in Day 1 MAX 2007 keynote…
If you missed the keynote, or weren’t able to make it to Chicago for MAX this year, Aral Balkan has a video clip of us presenting a few of the Astro features on his blog. Aral’s blog on the Astro……
OK, YouTube’s started working again. I’ve replaced the video with the YouTube version. Hopefully that should play back better.
Cool ! Thanks man :)

The AIF image processing looks really promising. I can’t wait to dig into that. However, I was a little underwhelmed by the 3D support. Perhaps I’m just spoiled by Papervision, but I was expecting something a little more comprehensive than adding a z coordinate to Sprites. Hopefully what they showed today was just a small tease…

Flash Player 10 Preview : Video from MAX 2007…
Aral Balkan has published a video, taken during the keynote at MAX Chicago 2007, about the preview of Flash Player 10 (codename: ASTRO).

wow! what took weeks will now take minutes. and we can now finally offer our clients a real text and localization tool in flash, that is very exciting.
Adobe really addressed some real world issues and came through wonderfully, keep up the good work!!!
Thanks!
Fabulous Aral – thank you. Really nice for those of us who couldn’t attend.
[...] Aral Balkan videoed the one new and interesting bit (according to him) of the keynote speech at this year’s MAX event in Chicago. As an aside, what is it about keynote speeches? This one sounds as unrevealing as Microsoft’s MIX:UK keynote. Anyway, that aside, the video is available on YouTube, which handily allows it to be embedded in a blog. So see for yourself what the new features in Flash Player 10 will be: [...]

This is real great and exciting news! (Both RTL and 3D).
I hope they release some more info on how the new text API will be implemented.
there are some stupid but critical questions, like will it support RTL input…
and even more important will this text be picked up by Google spiders?
and until this version comes out you can check out this RTL solution which has become quite good for RTL output.

[...] Other than fixes to broken features and other small things, there are two huge features I see in the future of Flash: hardware-accelerated 3D support, and pixel shader support. This dream became closer to reality yesterday, as Adobe announced some of the new features of Flash Player 10 (codenamed “Astro”) on Adobe Max 2007 (see a video here). [...]
[...] well.. 自從上次做過和3d及video相關的網站後..發現愈來愈多網站其實就已經開始用code來達成3d on web的效果..之前在舊版曾經post過有關papervision 3d的資訊.. 但除了這套open source 之外..其實很多人一直都在研發3D engine..前幾天和同事聊到酷炫 3D站..他就給我看他在學校所做的project…說到如何運用4個點來控制物件的視角變化.. http://nmshowcase.cias.rit.edu/flash/source/ 學生就可以做到這樣的程度…no wonder 我們公司很愛用剛畢業的強手.. 還有另一個強手 Mathieu Badimon的 Lab..也是屬於自己研發3d engine的例子之一(贏得這次flashForward)..看來數學愈來愈重要..若要玩的精準….adobe在max 2007 conference中也提到將推出flash player10 (Astro)..其中也提到將會有內建的3d component..所以in the future….3D is the trend! [...]
[...] Yesterday, Emmy Huang and I announced some of the new features that will be going into Astro (The next version of Flash Player). We got a great response from attendees, and I hope you will be equally excited by what is coming next. If you’d like to see the video, take a look at Aral Balkan’s recording. [...]

[...] 1 октября Эмми Хуанг (Emmy Huang) и Джастин Эверт Черч (Justin Everett-Church) анонсировали некоторые новые фичи нового Flash Player-а под кодовым именем “Astro”. Их презентацию на видео можно было посмотреть у Арала Балкана (Aral Balkan). [...]
[...] Astro, bonito nombre para la criatura. No se donde lei que escoger el codename para el proyecto era el 90% del desarrollo, tiene su gracia. El caso es que en dicho keynote propagado por el infame Aral Balkan, (infame porque es de esos que dan rabia de lo que saben), se habla de algunas de las suculentas caracteristicas del nuevo player. Vale, no es Actionscript 4, dios no lo quiera tan pronto. Pero el resto es para hecharse a llorar. Quiero decir, un nuevo soporte con texto RTL (Right-to-left), no es algo que me emocione demasiado, nunca he tenido que pelearme con una web en un idioma complejo que necesiten ese tipo de caracteristicas (toco madera). El nuevo soporte para texto multicolumna tampoco creo que me traiga demasiados quebraderos de cabeza, pero aqui se acaba mi placida vida cuando veo las 2 siguientes caracteristicas: Soporte para 3D y extensibilidad para filtros, modos de fusión y efectos de bitmap a través de un nuevo lenguaje, codename Hydra (ya empieza a tocar la moral tanto nombrecito, a mi todavía se me escapa de vez en cuando Macromedia).

RTL is great news, but naturally will be a good while before we can start using on commercial projects. Does anyone know of any good RTL solutions that can be used with FP8?
Thanks Gideon will check that out. If anyone else knows of other solutions, please post :)

Given that Adobe are implementing things like RTL support, multi-column layouts and many other things which are being drafted into CSS3, does it not make sense for Adobe to help out the W3C CSS Working Group in drafting the CSS3 specification?
At the moment, CSS support within the Flex framework doesn’t cover more than the basics (so much so that it’s debatable as to whether it’s CSS beyond the syntax). This could be an opportunity for Adobe to take advantage of the fact that browser vendors are slow, unwilling or unable to implement the CSS specs properly.
Adobe’s experience within the Flash environment (which essentially follows the same box-model of browser-based DOM) would be invaluable to the W3C.

That’s a very good suggestion, Nathan. I don’t know what, if any, effort there is on that front.

the new flash player features look really cool, but it seems as it somehow takes some of the fun of creating 3D away as it come “built in” to the player… on the other hand the new text features look exiting, and Hydra … well i can’t wait to get to spend a little more time with it!

next version player 11 cosmonaut :P
Adding the z-axis is huge. If you think PaperVision is cool, I assure you you ain’t seen nothing yet. Combine real 3D distortion (as appose to tesselation/skewing) with programmable pixel shaders and it won’t be long before we see realtime reflections, normal mapping etc. in Flash. Ofcourse you still need people with a good grasp of 3D to create this stuff and the PV team should be really well poised to get the most out of the new features with a huge increase in performance. Can’t wait to see PV2 ;O)

aralcım mesajı alıp almadığını bilemediğim için çok bişey yazamadım kendine iyi bak
What is the point, it shows in the example that the whole text direction and LTR and there is some words which is a RTL-Words and they are showing well????
We need to see a FULL RIGHT TO LEFT (RTL) Direction Paragraph…
Да, было бы смешно, если б не было так грустно …
