Living on the beta edge

19 Apr 2007

We launched the Associated Press beta video player yesterday on knoxnews.com that adds a "local channel" of video content. We've been in the AP video network for a year or more, but the ability to upload our own content into the player is new. Take a look.

It's got a pretty easy to use admin tool, delivers video in both Windows Media and Flash formats, works with at least Internet Explorer and Firefox, and the Windows and OS X operating systems.

You can email links and create your own playlist.

The Associated Press, working with Microsoft and some other vendors/partners, has some ambitious growth plans for the online video network. We'll see where it goes.
