3GS is over 3 years old, which makes sense for a outdated hardware. Google Nexus won't get Ice Cream Sandwhich which is barely even 1 year old. What? There is a difference.
First, there is more than one "google nexus" but I will assume you meant the only one not officially receiving the 4.0 update which is the nexus one.  Second, the nexus one is almost 2 years old.  It came out in Jan 2010.  Please check your facts. Finally, there is a reason its not getting 4.0.  Its not fast enough and would not make for a good user experience... I guess they want to avoid what apple did to the iphone 3g when ios 4 came out, they put it on the iphone 3g and everyone who had it said it was total crap and made their phones worthless. The original iphone and 3g will not receive ios5 and apple since they have such a small line up of phones can break out features that require more horsepower, like siri.  Android doesnt do that.  So to recap, the iphone and iphone 3g will not receive ios5.  The iphone 3gs and 4 will recieve stripped down versions aka ios5 "lite".. the only one getting ios5 with all the features is the iphone 4s.

The 3GS might not get Siri but it does get all the other things like security updates in iOS 5, as far as I know.
Correct, and google did not abandon the 2.x code for security updates when they brought out the 3.x code so I have no reason to suspect they will do the same now.  There have been security updates to gingerbread all summer and I have been getting them.

So, I think this is the current jwplayer.  It's playing in flash.  Everytime I pause it the water mark does not appear.

Anyway, you know whats best better than I do.  I was just trying to think of a way for apple support without too much hassle for you.

Also, I thought webm got support in gingerbread?

Um, you do realise that when there is "HTML5" playback, the player has absolutely nothing to do with it, right? That the exact same code could be wrapped around JWPlayer for HTML5 devices?

Out of interest what format do you use? Different browsers support different formats meaning that for plenty of users, Flash is the only option.
I am using mp4.  I understand flash is the only option for a lot of machines unless I want to keep 3 versions of every file on my server (ogv, mp4, and webm.  which I dont intend to do).  My goal is to support apple products.  Android users have the option for flash so I am not concerned.

As I said before, I have been trying this Mediacore http://mediacore.com/ and it handles html 5 flash fall back really well with a number of players at the admins choice.  Jwplayer was an option that did not handle html 5, so I assumed it couldnt, but with some further searching I see that it can do html 5 (which you already knew).  Anyway, with mediacore I was able to try a number of different options for players and truth be told I liked sublime player the "best" but I dont think it was worth $10 a month, not with all these free options out here.

Anyway, if it could be done with jwplayer then great.  I dont mind a watermark.  The jwplayer water mark only pops up at the beginning of the video then goes away.  I hardly even notice it but truthfully I dont even mind the flowplayer water mark that stays for the entire video.

Features / replace jwplayer with videojs for local videos
« on July 20th, 2011, 07:57 AM »
its a small stupid request..  and I think I am the only one using aeva media gallery for local videos.  I would love it if you would replace jwplayer with either videojs or flowplayer.  Both are free and open source. The reason why I request this is because both of these players offer easy html 5 video with flash fall back.  Maybe you can do it with jwplayer but I know mediacore will do it with these two and of the two I think videojs looked a little cleaner.  I request this because I am very interested in supporting apple devices that do not support flash player  :D.  I dont know how much code would need to be replaced but if its small please consider it.  Thanks Guys!
