Developers can then use the APIs to create portable accelerated codec functionality such as MPEG-4, H.264, MP3, AAC and JPEG. They can port the codec to a new platform simply by getting the appropriate platform library.

Wed, 6 Dec 2006 11:16:15 GMT The shader era is about to make its way onto the mobile gaming scene and OpenGL ES 2.0 is set to become the API of choice. OpenGL ES 2.0 represents a major milestone in the convergence of graphics capabilities between desktop and handheld gaming devices. The OpenGL ES 2.0 specification introduces the majority of the functionality used by today's desktop games into the embedded space. While this change from OpenGL ES 1.1 ushers in the shader era to mobile gaming, it also means that mobile game developers will need to make significant changes to their applications.

OpenSL ES provides a cross-platform foundation for audio on mobile devices with support for interactive sound for games, streaming audio, music mixers and ringtones. Wed, 15 Nov 2006 11:16:15 GMT An interview with the OpenSL ES specification and profile developers. There is a bewildering variety of proprietary audio APIs in the mobile space. Even playing simple sounds is not consistent across platforms. OpenSL ES addresses this problem while adding standardized access to advanced audio functionality, as well as hardware accelerated support for higher-level audio APIs such as OpenAL. opensl es, audio, mobile, handheld, phone, midi, sound fx, 3d positional ringtone, XMF, MP3 Player, OpenAL 00:11:44 http://www.khronos.org/podcasts/11-15-06-opensl_es.mp3 no http://www.khronos.org/podcasts/11-06-openkode.mp3 http://www.khronos.org/podcasts/11-06-openkode.mp3 Khronos Group Khronos Group OpenKODE provides functionally similar to DirectX on the PC, except it is cross-platform, royalty-free and streamlined for handheld devices and mobile phones.
