Hello, I am Janna Chelsy from Eltima Software. I would like to draw your attention to the differences between our SWF & FLV Movie Player for Mac and the standard Abode Flash Player:

1) Adobe Flash doesns't always allow to control the movie if this option is disabled in the SWF itself while we can;

2) Even if the movie control is not disabled within SWF file our player has more capable, user-friendly and visual means for playing Flash;

3) We have a mechanism for FLV files playback;

4) There is a playlist in SWF Movie Player;

5) We offer the possibility to view the file info;

6) PRO version has unique feature to let the movie float on top;

7) SWF & FLA Movie Player allows to zoom the movie with visualizing the currently playing area scale.

Well, I went to that link and downloaded the Adobe program. I had one particular file from YouTube that I got (Richard Dawkins on the God Delusion), so it was 165 MB file. I tried it with the Adobe program. It refused to run it. I tried it with QuickTime (got the codec in there) and it took about 10 seconds to load it up. I tried it with the SWF & FLV Player (just got it today) and it loaded it up in about 1-2 seconds and started playing it. So, this program appears to be the best one.

If you have the free one, you can simply click on the expand window which will take up practically the entire screen anyway. When I did that, the program did very slightly "stutter" when playing the file (on an iBook 14 inch G4, the last model made). When I put it back down to the original window size, it stopped stuttering.

The Adobe Player appears to have absolutey nothing in it, except a player. And since the player did not work at all, that means the Adobe program has absolutely nothing at all.
