How do you suggest that iPlayer isn't an application? What is your  
point here? It's very difficult to discuss anything with you if you  
don't write sentences that make sense in English. I do appreciate that  
it's not your first language and that that must make it harder to  
write fluently but surely use of full sentences, punctuation and  
capital letters are at least as common in German? I might be  
misunderstanding you. You're suggesting that iPlayer is not an  
application, but that a site with Flash videos (youtube?) *is* an  
application? Or...what?

What are you on about here?

Does Flash decode Ogg Vorbis by default? Is it as bandwidth efficient  
as H.264? Why do you care which video codec the Flash client uses to  
transfer video to your browser?

I'm sure you can type more intelligibly than this. If only as a matter  
of basic courtesy to those you e-mail and expect to read what you write.
