June 19th, 2013· Multiple stability and security enhancements
June 12th, 2013NEW FEATURES:
Recursive stop on MovieCli:
· This feature allows a game developer to effectively pause/stop a running SWF without having to iterate through all of the objects on the DisplayList. A new method called stopAllChildren is added to the DisplayObjectContainer ActionScript class to provide a mechanism by which developers can stop the timeline animations of all MovieClip objects that are children of the corresponding DisplayObjectContainer.
Support for 4096 x 4096 2D textures via the BASELINE_EXTENDED profile:
· The maximum 2D texture size available has been increased to be 4096 x 4096 for Stage3D applications that obtain a Context3D using the Context3DProfile.BASELINE_EXTENDED profile. Only hardware environments that support a maximum texture size of at least 4096 x 4096 will support the BASELINE_EXTENDED profile so applications need to be prepared to fallback to using the BASELINE profile if the request fails.
RectangleTexture class added to the BASELINE profile:
· A new RectangleTexture class has been added to support non-power-of-two textures. These do not support compressed textures, mipmapping, or the repeat wrap mode, but may be useful for reducing memory consumption in situations where mipmaps are unnecessary, for render to texture, and supporting 1:1 backbuffer-sized blits, as they are allowed to be at least as large as the backbuffer. A RectangleTexture is created using the Context3D.createRectangleTexture method.

July 17th, 2012ActionScript Workers:
· With the introduction of Workers to ActionScript and the Flash Runtime, Flash Developers can now offload certain tasks like high-latency operations and long-running computations to "Background Workers". These Background Workers run concurrently in order to leverage more machine resources and avoid things like UI freezes. Note: To fully leverage ActionScript Workers and be able to debug workers, the next version of Flash Builder is required. This next version of Flash Builder will be made available through public beta in the August timeframe.
Stage3D "constrained" profile for increased GPU reach:
· The Flash Player will gate the use of hardware acceleration based on the date of your video card's driver. In previous releases, we gated support to drivers older than January 1, 2008. In this release, we will be changing the gating to apply to drivers older than January 1, 2006. Content using wmode=direct (or renderMode=direct for AIR) should be hardware accelerated on graphics card driver date newer than 1/1/2006 when possible. This applies to Stage3D and [StageVideo|StageVideo] APIs. In addition to that, we added a new profile for Stage3D called "constrained" profile, allowing your content to run hardware accelerated on the previously blacklisted Intel GMA chipsets. See below for more details about this new profile and how to leverage it.
Sandbox Bridge support:
· Sandbox bridging allows specific ActionScript objects or functions to be exposed between SWF-to-SWF cross-domain communication. This feature is already available in AIR and is being ported to Flash Player in this release.
LZMA support for ByteArray:
· In addition to zlib compression of ByteArray, we are introducing an additional compression type based on LZMA to compress data inside a ByteArray through ByteArray.compress() and ByteArray.uncompress().
Compressed texture with alpha support for Stage3D:
· Transparent images are now supported for compressed textures (ATF file format). Note: Stay tuned for the ATF tools which will be made available in the next weeks on Adobe Labs.
Licensing support: Flash Player Premium Features for Gaming:
· Supports licensing for the combined use of domain memory (used by some third party tools and the Project "Alchemy" C/C++ compiler) with Stage3D hardware acceleration in Flash Player.

February 27th, 2012· Introduces full Stage3D hardware accelerated graphics for iOS and Android. It allows you to distribute AIR captive runtime versions of apps, enabling you to publish apps immediately to marketplaces such as the iOS App Store, Android Market, and Amazon Appstore.
Release features:
· Stage3D hardware accelerated GPU rendering (iOS and Android) -- AIR 3.2 introduces the Stage3D API to iOS and Android. These low-level APIs enable fluid, high-performance 2D and 3D graphics with full GPU acceleration across devices.
· Multithreaded Video Decoding (Windows, Mac OS, Linux) - This release introduces a new fully multithreaded video decoding pipeline which resolves a number of legacy playback issues. This modern architecture will also enable future performance enhancements across all platforms.
· Flash Player background updates (Windows) - New versions of the runtimes can now be delivered more effectively to the end user with this enhanced updating mechanism (Background update is only available in the release versions of Flash Player).
· Mouse lock, relative mouse coordinates, right and middle click events - Infinite scrolling and new mouse events to enable first-person shooter experiences.
· Drivers gating for hardware acceleration relaxed to 1/1/2008
· Throttling event - This release introduces a new ThrottleEvent.
Multi-threaded pipeline was written grounds up to support lower end devices and full hardware stacks where all the decoding and rendering is offloaded to hardware. The benefits of the modernization of the pipeline would be visible from mobile devices, tvs, netbooks to high end desktops. In Flash Player 11.2, the new video pipeline is available for desktop platforms (including netbooks ) and brings enhancements with respect to:
· Eliminating jitter seen occasionally in some encoding and typically in live streams and real time interactive scenarios.
· Gains in frame rate by reducing dropped frames as much as 50% on certain platforms with high bit rate content.
· Seek frame accuracy.
· High resolution/bit rate content decoding would still keep the player UI responsive and any background ActionScript processing going, which earlier could have experienced brief halts because all the decoding and player UI/ActionScript resided on the main thread.
· For HTTP streaming, ActionScript is the control point of fetching the stream data and delivering to the video stack. On seek, earlier the streaming would halt, while the frames up to the point of seek would be getting decoded. With multithreaded video decoding, not only would the seek be more responsive, but it would also start playback faster after seek.
· 50+ fixes as part of the modernization of the video pipeline architecture.
Security fixes:
· Includes security enhancements described in Security Bulletin APSB12-03 (http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb12-03.html).

February 1st, 2012· Mouse lock, relative mouse coordinates, right and middle click events - Infinite scrolling and new mouse events to enable first-person shooter experiences. Drivers gating for hardware acceleration relaxed to 1/1/2008*** Throttling event**** - This release introduces a new ThrottleEvent.
November 23rd, 2011New features:
Mouse lock:
· A new mouseLock property has been added to Stage.
To enable mouse locking set Stage.mouseLock to true. There are several rules which are applied here:
· This property can only be set in full screen mode. It dispatches a runtime exception if it is called in non-full screen mode.
· On mobile settings this property always throws an exception. The reason is simple: This feature can only work with a mouse type of devices and mobile devices do not have such a thing.
· The property can be read in non-full screen mode. This allows developers to easily dispatch to alternative input methods if mouse locking is disabled externally for some reason.
· When exiting full screen mode Stage.mouseLock is automatically set to false.
· Note that while in full screen mode mouse event listeners attached to other display objects but the stage will not be dispatched. In other words to receive mouse deltas and any other mouse event while mouseLock is active you need to attach your mouse event listeners to the stage.
Relative mouse coordinates:
· New properties (movementX and movementY) on MouseEvent.
When Stage.mouseLock == true:
· MouseEvent.localX and MouseEvent.localY will contain 0.
· MouseEvent.movementX and MouseEvent.movementY will contain delta values.
· MouseEvent.movementX and MouseEvent.movementY are never transformed based on stage transformation, i.e. they always remain in screen space.
· MouseEvent.movementX and MouseEvent.movementY will be 0 when Stage.mouseLock == false.
Situations where mouse locking is disabled automatically and the mouse cursor is made visible again:
· When the user hits ESC.
· When the window loses focus, for instance when the user hit CTRL-TAB.
· When any settings UI is visible (that includes all privacy dialogs).When a native dialog is shown, for instance a file upload dialog.
Right and middle click events:
· Just like with Adobe AIR, right and middle click events can now be used to inside Flash Player.
· When a listener is registered to the MouseEvent.RIGHT_CLICK event, the native context menu will not show up, allowing you to create your own context menu.

Improve application reliability and user experience by catching and handling unexpected runtime errors and present custom error messages. When using the global error handler in a SWF running in the debug player, error pop-ups will not be shown.
Globalization support:
· New ActionScript globalization APIs allow Flash Player to use the values chosen in the operating system preferences to process text and lists and present information based on location context, without any knowledge of locale requirements. Choose a specific format independent of the currently selected locale on the operating system. Locale specific information and processing can include: date, time, currency and number formatting; currency and number parsing; string comparison for sorting or searching for text; and upper/lower case conversions.
Designed for Mobility:
· To make it possible to deploy SWF content on smartphones and other mobile devices that have limited processing power and memory availability compared to PCs, a tremendous amount of work has gone into to making Flash Player 10.1 “ready for mobility”. This work includes performance improvements, such as rendering, scripting, memory, start-up time, battery and CPU optimizations, in addition to hardware acceleration of graphics and video. Improvements in memory utilization and management, start-up time, CPU usage, and rendering/scripting performance benefit PCs as well as mobile devices.
· Flash Player 10.1 also introduces new mobile-ready features that take advantage of native device capabilities – including support for multi-touch, gestures, mobile input models, and accelerometer input – bringing unprecedented creative control and expressiveness to the mobile browsing experience.
Mobile text input:
· Flash Player 10.1 provides support for use of native device virtual keyboards with TextField support if no physical keyboard is detected. A virtual keyboard is automatically raised and lowered in response to focus changes on text fields when editing text on mobile devices supporting a virtual keyboard to enable unobstructed and intuitive text editing. The focused text field is centered in the visible region of the page and appropriately zoomed/scrolled to ensure it is not obscured by the virtual keyboard. Upon screen rotation, incoming calls, or other system events, any already existing text input is retained. The virtual keyboard works with TextField but does not currently work with the Text Layout Framework or other Flash Text Engine text.
Multi-touch and gestures:
· Developers can take advantage of the latest hardware and operating system user interaction capabilities using new ActionScript 3 APIs for multi-touch and native gesture events. Create multi-touch aware content for a wide range of devices and multi-touch capable machines running Microsoft Windows 7. Interact with multiple objects simultaneously or work with native gestures, such as pinch, scroll, rotate, scale and two-finger tap. Multi-touch support in Flash Player 10.1 is not available for Android.
Accelerometer input:
· A new Accelerometer class allows developers to read acceleration values in X, Y and Z axes from native device accelerometer sensors in ActionScript. Leverage accelerometer input on supported devices for user input control. Developers can specify the rate of accelerometer updates to conserve battery life.
Optimized SWF management for mobile:
· Flash Player 10.1 optimizes SWF loading and playback for mobile CPU and memory limitations to provide a better user experience. Instances are loaded or deferred based on SWF priority, visibility and available memory and CPU resources to enable more immediate browsing experiences without waiting for every SWF on a page to load. Developers can indicate SWF priority through a new HTML parameter, hasPriority. Deferred instances are loaded after the HTML page load is complete, and offscreen and invisible instances are started when they become visible. Flash Player will also automatically pause SWF playback it is not in view or the foreground application, for example when a call is received or alarm goes off, to reduce CPU utilization, battery usage and memory usage.
Sleep mode:
· The Flash Player timer slows down when the mobile device goes into screen-saver or similar mode to reduce CPU and battery consumption on mobile devices. The timer returns to the default setting when a wake-up event is triggered. There is no interruption in audio/video playback. Incoming phone calls pause Flash Player.
Graphics hardware acceleration:
· A GPU-based vector renderer replaces the software renderer on smartphones and other mobile devices, resulting in faster rendering performance for more expressive user experiences while consuming less power. Supports hardware acceleration of all rendering, including vector graphics, bitmaps, 3D effects, filters, color transforms, alpha, device and embedded text, Saffron type, and cacheAsBitmap. Implementation of graphics hardware acceleration will be dependent on the graphics silicon vendor of the device. This feature is not available for Android devices.
H.264 video hardware decoding:
· Flash Player 10.1 introduces hardware-based H.264 video decoding to deliver smooth, high quality video with minimal overhead across supported mobile devices and PCs. Using available hardware to decode video offloads tasks from the CPU, improving video playback performance, reducing system resource utilization, and preserving battery life. H.264 video hardware acceleration is not supported on the Nexus One at this time.
Out-of-memory management:
· Flash Player 10.1 prevents out-of-memory browser crashes by shutting down instances where a SWF attempts to allocate more memory than is available on the device. When a SWF tries to allocate more memory than is available on a device, Flash Player 10.1 adds logic to shut down Flash Player to prevent the browser from crashing. Users will receive notification to restart the SWF, or will see a notice to refresh the page if all instances must be shutdown.
Expanded Options for High Quality Media Delivery:
· Flash Player 10.1 includes a number of media quality of service improvements and is ready to take advantage of upcoming media delivery technologies to provide new ways to deliver rich media experiences and create new business models. With new HTTP streaming and content protection features, premium audio and video content can be securely delivered within the browser. Streaming performance is enhanced with improved support for live events, buffer control and peer assisted networking. Network context-aware services will enable smooth, uninterrupted media playback and improved resource utilization on mobile devices.
Peer-assisted networking:
· (requires Stratus)
· The RTMFP protocol now supports groups, which enables an application to segment its users to send messages and data only between members of the group. Application level multicast provides one (or a few) -to-many streaming of continuous live video and audio live video chat using RTMFP groups.
HTTP streaming:
· HTTP streaming enables delivery of video-on-demand and live streaming using standard HTTP servers, or from HTTP servers at CDNs, leveraging standard HTTP infrastructure and SWF-level playback components. The addition of HTTP streaming will enable expanded protocol options to deliver live and recorded media to Flash Player, including full content protection for HTTP streamed video with Flash Access 2.0.
Stream reconnect:
· (Requires FMS 3.5.3 server)
· Stream reconnect allows an RTMP stream to continue to play through the buffer even if the connection is disrupted, thereby making media experiences more tolerant of short term network failures and enabling non-disruptive video playback. When a connection is re-established the stream resumes playback. Developers can add re-connection logic in ActionScript to re-establish server connection and resume streaming without any disruption in the video.
Smart seek:
(Requires FMS 3.5.3 server):
· Smart seek allows you to seek within the buffer and introduces a new "back" buffer so you can easily rewind or fast forward video without going back to the server, reducing the start time after a seek. Smart seek can speed and improve the seeking performance of streamed videos and enable the creation of slow motion, double time, or “instant replay” experiences for streaming video.
Buffered stream catch-up:
· Buffered stream catch-up allows developers to set a target latency threshold that triggers slightly accelerated video playback to ensure that live video streaming stays in sync with real time over extended playback periods.
Fast Switch (formerly Dynamic Streaming enhancements):
· (Requires FMS 4 server)
· The Dynamic Streaming capability introduced in Flash Player 10 and FMS 3.5 is enhanced to improve switching times between bitrates, reducing the time to receive the best viewing experience for available bandwidth and processing speed. Users no longer need to wait for the buffer to play through, resulting in a faster bitrate transition time and an uninterrupted video playback experience, regardless of bandwidth fluctuations.
April 29th, 2010· Introduces support for H.264 video hardware decoding on Mac OS X 10.6.3.
· In this preview release, you will be able to recognize when hardware decoding is in use when you see a small white square appear in the upper left corner of a video.

November 17th, 2009· The first runtime release of the Open Screen Project that enables uncompromised Web browsing of expressive applications, content and video across devices.
Designed for mobility:
· To make it possible to deploy SWF content on smartphones and other mobile devices that have limited processing power and memory availability compared to PCs, a tremendous amount of work has gone into to making Flash Player 10.1 “ready for mobility”. This work includes performance improvements, such as rendering, scripting, memory, start-up time, battery and CPU optimizations, in addition to hardware acceleration of graphics and video. Improvements in memory utilization and management, start-up time, CPU usage, and rendering/scripting performance benefit PCs as well as mobile devices.
· Flash Player 10.1 also introduces new mobile-ready features that take advantage of native device capabilities – including support for multi-touch, gestures, mobile input models, and accelerometer input -- bringing unprecedented creative control and expressiveness to the mobile browsing experience.
Mobile text input:
· Flash Player 10.1 provides support for use of native device virtual keyboards with TextField support if no physical keyboard is detected. A virtual keyboard is automatically raised and lowered in response to focus
· changes on text fields when editing text on mobile devices supporting a virtual keyboard to enable unobstructed and intuitive text editing. The focused text field is centered in the visible region of the page
· and appropriately zoomed/scrolled to ensure it is not obscured by the virtual keyboard. Upon screen rotation, incoming calls, or other system events, any already existing text input is retained. The virtual
· keyboard works with TextField but does not currently work with the Text Layout Framework or other Flash Text Engineflash.text.engine text.
Multi-touch and gestures:
· Developers can take advantage of the latest hardware and operating system user interaction capabilities using new ActionScript 3 APIs for multi-touch and native gesture events. Create multi-touch aware content
· for a wide range of devices as well as multi-touch capable PCs running Microsoft Windows 7. Interact with multiple objects simultaneously or work with native gestures, such as pinch, scroll, rotate, scale and two-finger tap.
Accelerometer input:
· A new Accelerometer class allows developers to read acceleration values in X, Y and Z axes from native device accelerometer sensors in ActionScript. Leverage accelerometer input on supported devices for
· user input control and to control screen orientation. Developers can specify the rate of accelerometer updates to conserve battery life.
Screen orientation (mobile only):
· SWF content can adjust to screen orientation changes, such as switching between portrait and landscape modes, consistent with built-in applications on devices. Event information gives developers the option to
· change the layout or format of their content when reorientation occurs, whether this occurs because of accelerometer input or other user input (e.g., when a slider keyboard opens).
Optimized SWF management for mobile (mobile only):
· Flash Player 10.1 optimizes SWF loading and playback for mobile CPU and memory limitations to provide a better user experience. Instances are loaded or deferred based on SWF priority, visibility and available memory and CPU resources to enable more immediate browsing experiences without waiting for every SWF on a page to load. Developers can indicate SWF priority through a new HTML parameter, hasPriority. Deferred instances are loaded after the HTML page load is complete, and offscreen and invisible instances are started when they become visible. Flash Player will also automatically pause SWF
· playback it is not in view or the foreground application, for example when a call is received or alarm goes off, to reduce CPU utilization, battery usage and memory usage.
Sleep mode (mobile only):
· The Flash Player timer slows down when the mobile device goes into screen-saver or similar mode to reduce CPU and battery consumption on mobile devices. The timer returns to the default setting when a wake-up event is triggered. There is no interruption in audio/video playback. Incoming phone calls pause Flash Player.
Graphics hardware acceleration (mobile only):
· A GPU-based vector renderer replaces the software renderer on smartphones and other mobile devices, resulting in faster rendering performance for more expressive user experiences while consuming less
· power. Supports hardware acceleration of all rendering, including vector graphics, bitmaps, 3D effects, filters, color transforms, alpha, device and embedded text, Saffron type, and cacheAsBitmap.
H.264 video hardware decoding:
· Flash Player 10.1 introduces hardware-based H.264 video decoding to deliver smooth, high quality video with minimal overhead across mobile devices and PCs. Using available hardware to decode video offloads
· tasks from the CPU, improving video playback performance, reducing system resource utilization, and preserving battery life.
Adaptive frame rate (mobile only):
· Flash Player will monitor and lower the SWF frame rate to provide greater processing power for rendering, which can improve content usability and conserve CPU utilization on resource constrained mobile devices.
· If the frame rate drops below the threshold, Flash Player will drop frames to achieve the defined default frame rate of the SWF.
