Speaking of Flash Professional CS4 stuff online, it would be great if the CS3 Video Workshop site could be revived or updated for CS4. It was fast – easy to find what you were looking for an a few seconds. Well laid out and we spent hours there.

By contrast, Adobe TV is the exact opposite, like wading through treacle:

1) It’s badly laid out – too little info on each page. Too much noise, for example, if you want stuff on Dreamweaver, you just get a mountain of irrelevance… or it seems that way because the results are spread over so many slow loading pages with items whose titles are hard to read.

2) Difficult to read the names of the videos, which don’t have enough space.

3) The filter selections made on a previous screen are lost when using the back button. If it wasn’t already hard enough to find what you were looking for, you then have to start all over again, wading like treacle through several pages of noise.

4) Why is Adobe getting into the very ‘mid 90’s’ grey look with everything? White text on a very dark background is tiring on the eyes as any advertising designer will tell you. Even ultrashock.com abandoned it years ago.

Adobe TV is just awful. It couldn’t possibly be any worse. It’s so bad, it gives the impression that Adobe have abandoned it. Please, please bring back the Video Workshop, or give us something useable.

Great! As long as I can be at least 95% certain the new AIR version will be out before January 2009, I’m happy. Of course, the sooner an exact release date is available, the better ;)

Thanks!

AIR 1.1 Does not support FLash Player 10 APIs.

The next version of AIR, AIR 1.5, will be based on Flash Player 10 and will support Flash Player 10 APIs.

AIR 1.5 will be out this fall.

Hope that helps…

I second iBrent’s question. I can’t find any information on whether or not AIR 1.1 supports the new Flash player 10 API. This would be crucial for me to know right now, as we’re right about to start a major project where we want to target Flash player 10… Alternatively, any information on when the next AIR version will be released?

Is AIR updated to use Flash Player 10 yet? When I go to export my new Flash CS4 3D swf to AIR 1.1, it doesn’t keep the 3D tweens?
