New CorePlayer version is coming
May 9, 2008
The best mobile multimedia app is getting more and more advanced. According to Betaboy in the official CoreCodec.Org forum, the new version is imminent and should be available for download anytime from now. Here is what Betaboy said :
“Ready for your download pleasure…. the Entire Coreplayer Platform v1.2.4
This new release goes along way towards what ppl have asked for, so let me address that here rather then try and go through whats hidden within the readme.
- We now support the Adobe Flash Multimedia Container (FLV, F4V)
– All Symbian versions now feature our YouTube Browser
– CorePlayer on Symbian is much ‘happier’ now on the platform (and will be even more so with each release)
– We have added support for site specific functions… for example we love “Revision3′ so we have added support via ‘file > open url’ to watch any of the shows there.

I am very excited to see the latest version in the flesh because so far, CorePlayer UIQ 3 never let me down and it can play any type of video file I throw in my M2 memory card. No need to convert to AVI or MP4. And if the YouTube support is very real, finally, UIQ 3 users can rejoice!

Porting Mozilla onto Symbian OS
May 5, 2008
An interesting piece to read. Over at Forum Nokia Blog, Harry Li discussed the possibility of porting Mozilla to Symbian OS. Among others, Harry mentioned the humongous size of Mozilla Platform. He said “Frankly, at first I hadn’t realized the size of the Mozilla Platform, until I read these from the book “Rapid Application Development with Mozilla”:
It is 30 times larger than the Apache Web Server, 20 times larger than the Java 1.0 JDK/JRE sources, 5 times bigger than he standard Perl distribution, twice as big as the Linux kernel source, and nearly as large as the whole GNOME 2.0 desktop source—even when 150 standard GNOME applications are included.”
