Adobe Released New Flash ‘Gala’ For Mac, Using Apple’s H.264 Hardware Acceleration

Lookie what do we have here… Adobe released their new Flash player for Mac called Gala, which uses Apple’s H.264 hardware acceleration. It is still in beta and you can download it here. I just got it, and didn’t try it yet. But no beta can be worse than what we have now…

Later edit:

Before Gala, playing a 720p or 1080p YouTube video would load the CPU on Macbook Pro up to about 93%. Now, that Gala is on, well…
