A nice to have but not a killer feature when the current player is so hard to use at all. Cortado can seek haven't yet rigged that up in JS or Flash.May be able to make further improvements to Flash speed, but I'm willing to take the slight hit for the fact that it "just works". With latest Java 7, Cortado runs at modestly lower CPU usage than the Flash version on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 8.1.May or may not be able to prune some more of the C library code out. cortado.jar is less than half the size of ogv.swf (186KiB vs 454 KiB).Flash and JS provide nice smooth scaling. Cortado's video output is scaled nearest-neighbor and looks pretty bad when scaled up.Java applet startup is much slower than Flash startup, and shows an annoying Java logo.The Flash plugin works more nicely with the browser as long as you set the right parameters. This could make it ugly for integration into MultimediaViewer, and definitely breaks my demo page. Java applet plugin is _horribly_ broken with regard to z-indexing in IE you can't float other elements above it, such as say custom dynamic controls.With latest Java 7, even the signed version of the applet from won't run unless you add a security exception in your Java configuration - it's missing permission information in the manifest that the latest plugin demands.I've added a Cortado mode to the player demo at to more directly compare against the current Flash version for IE usage.
