Oregan announces Flash direct to TV
Oregan Networks, an expert in lightweight web browsing technologies for mainstream non-PC Consumer Electronics (CE), has announced the release of a technology feature that makes it possible for consumers to access and control Adobe Flash streaming video directly on TV, thus broadening entertainment and communications options for the mass market audience of TV viewers. Oregan Media Browser now seamlessly delivers user generated content, such as YouTube and MySpace, as well as facilitating search of such media via universal and specialised search engines, including Blinkx and Google.
With its implementation, Oregan addresses the critical issues that have obstructed a larger scale uptake of Flash video on TV: video streaming latencies, and high memory and CPU power requirements.
