Their live feed yesterday was only available on Safari. Isn't it obvious that they want their herd only inside of a barn?

- romanovcode 12y agoI don't get why this is down-voted. I think it is excellent point. My thoughts exactly when tried to view the live stream.
- sbuk 12y agoIts being downvoted because of the derogatory naming of Apple users.

- kalleboo 12y agoIt was streamed in the open HTTP Live Streaming protocol. It just so happens that the only web browser that implements it in Safari. Worked fine in VLC. Is there any other way to do live streams embedded on a web page without a proprietary Flash plugin?
- frewsxcv 12y agoHardly open. It'd be like if Google rewrote the Gmail frontend to native dart and then just blamed the other browsers for not having a native Dart VM. Dart is even standardized (by ECMA), unlike HLS which isn't standardized. Relevant: http://annevankesteren.nl/2010/09/draft-vs-standard http://annevankesteren.nl/2010/09/draft-vs-standard
- runjake 12y ago> they want their herd only inside of a barn? Awesome. Who should I switch to that doesn't want that?
- _random_ 12y agoApple is the most extreme example. I was able to watch Microsoft's live streams in Chrome for example.
- jonknee 12y agoTo be fair it wasn't even available with Safari for most of it. Brought back memories from keynotes a decade ago where the stream barely worked.
