Jilion releases SublimeVideo HTML5 video player, no browser plugin required

“Jilion, a team of application and user interface developers and designers based in Switzerland, has released SublimeVideo, an HTML5 video player that works in Safari, Chrome and Internet Explorer (with Chrome Frame installed),” FairerPlatform reports.

Current features (in the demo):
• HTML5 video goodness: no browser plugin, no Flash dependencies
• Jump anywhere in the video and it’ll start buffering from that point
• Custom styled controls
• Sleek zoom-in/out transitions
• Live-resizing (when resizing the browser window)
• More advanced controls on a draggable pane
• Press spacebar to play/pause video (doesn’t always work in Flash)
• Full-screen mode by alt (option)-clicking on the full-window button (WebKit nightly builds only)

FairerPlatform reports, “Thereupon, Jilion plans to add Firefox support, volume controls and ‘full’ IE support (fall back to Flash). Final code for SublimeVideo will be soon released for free (non-commercial use).”

MacDailyNews Note: The video demo works beautifully on our iPhone 3GS models and jumping around within the video’s timeline works perfectly.

  1. Once again, Apple drives the unworthy and unappreciative forward into a better and brighter future. Flash was long overdue for elimination. Sorry, Adobe, but Photoshop in the mid-1990’s was your high point.

  2. @Snapper

    I have the same C2D 2.4 MBP (Early 2008) – not had any problems so far.

    On a different note – I have noticed that the left-hand fan rattles when spinning at speed, perhaps I should have it looked at.

  3. Can’t find a way to save the video though. Even tried using the Safari’s web inspector, found the .mp4 file location and clicked the Download Linked File came to nought.

    Has anybody been able to save an HTML5 video?

  4. The Best thing about Click To Flash, after it’s main function: blocking flash files from playing, is how easy it makes it to download flash media to your harddrive.

    Even better, on YouTube, right clicking on the not playing Flash file allows you to download the H.264 file for later viewing.

    My number one concern about HTML5 is will i be able to save movies for later use the same as i do now.

    Not being able to save HTML5 movie files to my harddrive would be a definite deal killer for me!
