IcedTea, gcjwebplugin and Cortado (ogg/theora streaming)

With IcedTea installed, which includes gcjwebplugin, I was browsing a little and suddenly hit a streaming ogg/theora video that used the Cortado applet. And it just worked! Including sound support! So install the latest IcedTea and Try It Out!.

A full GPLed streaming video and audio stack. How wonderful!

    the jffmpeg project has a number of java based codecs available on sourceforge.

    That’s quite cool! :)

    I really have to find the time to update the gstreamer backend in Classpath, this makes me feel guilty that all the work mostly stopped after the GSoC ended…
