Use of Ogg formats in HTML5
, HTML5 video is not currently as widespread as Flash videos, though of recent rollouts of experimental HTML5-based video players on websites, DailyMotion is so far the only one to use Ogg Theora and Vorbis formats, which suggests an increasing early interest in adopting HTML5 video.
Comparison of HTML5 and Flash
The table below compares the features of the Flash platform, the HTML5 specification and the features implemented in modern web browsers.Web browsers cannot render Flash media themselves. Instead, Flash is primarily rendered via the proprietary, but freely available, Adobe Flash Player. Until 2008, there was no official specification by which to create an alternative player. Alternative players have been developed before 2008, but they support Flash to a lesser degree than the official one.
