Adobe released a new version of the Flash Player in June that dramatically improves video playback. This means that SlideRocket will be able to handle video up to HD quality using the VP6 codec.

Here is a sample of HD video playing in Flash at 1280×720 pixels (720p) at 1,300Kbit/second (you will need to download the beta version of the Flash Player here).

Beautiful, no?
