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
If someone's interested it could be picked up again though; all the old code's in ogv.js's git history. --[[User:Brion|Brion]] ([[User talk:Brion|talk]]) 07:38, 13 August 2015 (PDT)

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)
