About a month ago, we showed you an early preview of Flash running on iPhone. Frash is a port of the Adobe Flash runtime for Android to the iPhone, using a compatibility layer, by comex. Frash can currently run most Flash programs natively in the MobileSafari browser. Frash currently only runs on the iPad, but support for other devices (3GS+ only due to technical restrictions) is planned, as well as support for iOS 4.
Comex, the guy behind Spirit, published a video preview of Flash running on the iPhone. At the moment we don’t have any info on the project but as soon as we do, you will be the first one to know. Stay tuned…

Lookie what do we have here… Adobe released their new Flash player for Mac called Gala, which uses Apple’s H.264 hardware acceleration. It is still in beta and you can download it here. I just got it, and didn’t try it yet. But no beta can be worse than what we have now…
Later edit:
Before Gala, playing a 720p or 1080p YouTube video would load the CPU on Macbook Pro up to about 93%. Now, that Gala is on, well…

Remember my post on how to boost MobileSafari?Well if you do, than you remember that there was a plugin that gave you the ability to view flash videos on webpages and eliminates that stinky missing plugin icon.Well this is something similar.
I bet you want me to answer some questions for you. Well let’s do that :
Q : What is it called?
A : iMobileCinema
Q : Is it a flash player?
A : Hell no!
Q : Is it better?
A : Not yet.
Q: Works with .swf?
A: Nope
Q: What about .flv?
A : Well it has to work with something , right?
Q : If i already have this feature from the addons pack that you showed me in the previous post, why do i need this? It’s exactly the same, really do u have some new stuff for me or not?
A : Yep. Well you might not want this right now, but according to their blog , in the near future you will get this :
Some live broadcast sites are using rtmp protocol to deliver videos, e.g., mtv.com, hulu.com. We’ll try to support the protocol later. And playing embedded mp3, like singsbox.com, is a good idea and we’ll try to support it too.
Q : Oh wow, that’s cool! OK , OK, how can i get this?
A : Well , like all good stuff that are happening to the iPhone and/or iPod Touch , you can get this thru Cydia. First you need to add this source : http://d.imobilecinema.com , than you just search for iMobileCinema and install the package.
Q : Anything else that i should be aware about?
A : Hmm… not really. But you might wanna check out iMobileCinema’s Blog
