10 Cortado is an open-source cross-browser and cross-platform video
11 playback solution based upon Java technology. Leveraging the huge
12 installation base of Java it allows web-authors to deliver Ogg Theora
13 content without having to worry about the media playback setup
14 installed on customers' machines. This enables e.g. Wikipedia to
15 deliver Ogg Theora video content embedded into articles to millions of
16 users. Originally developed at Fluendo, Cortado's latest versions are
17 now maintained by Xiph.org. If you're interested in using free media
18 delivery technology, e.g. to avoid the costs adjunctive to non-free
19 technologies like H.264, and want to reach a big potential user base,
20 Cortado may be the solution you've been looking for.
