Flash codecs
I'm experimenting with using crossbridge (formerly FlasCC) to build the codec libraries to ActionScript bytecode, for a possible Ogg-playing Flash fallback for older browsers. So far I can build all the libraries but am having trouble linking them. Brion 12:58, 22 February 2014 (PST)

I removed those a while ago; it worked but had some problems:
- streaming/seeking would have required server-side support (HTTP Range header is blacklisted in requests made by Flash!)
- CrossBridge compiler hella slow, no working Linux build available
- CrossBridge compiler is not being actively maintained, so continues to bitrot
- share of IE 9 and below keeps shrinking, so diminishing returns trying to maintain it
