Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 is out

Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 is out
I twitted this earlier in the afternoon. It seems that Adobe did not announce it for now, but some versions of the Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 can already be downloaded.
Links on the page from Adobe Labs related to Flash Player 10.1 are still pointing to Flash Player 10.1 beta 1 files at the moment. But I read a news on PCInpact.com (a French tech news website) which was untitled "Flash 10.1 Beta 2 est de sortie : NVIDIA sort de nouveaux pilotes" which means "Flash 10.1 Beta 2 is out : NVIDIA publish new drivers" in English language.
The news announce better performances, less bugs for the player, support of DLP projectors for 3D Vision and of course that new NVIDIA drivers seems to better handle Flash Player 10.1 now. Surprisingly, I found links in the news pointing to a new beta of the Flash Player 10.1. As Adobe did not announce it officially, I suppose that PCINpact had the links directly from NVIDIA.
So, while the official Flash Player 10.1 page on the Adobe Labs is not updated, you can download the new Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 version from :
- Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 for Windows plugin
- Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 for Windows ActiveX
- Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 for Mac
- Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 for Linux
Update 1 (12/15/2009): Tom Barclay (Flash Player Product Marketing at Adobe) told us in the
comments that those versions aren't final release and must not be used for testing.
Update 2 (12/16/2009): It seems that Nvidia was a bit premature on announcing those links
to their commercial partners and Adobe deactivated them. So, they don't work anymore, sorry.
Update 3 (12/18/2009): Official now, Flash Player 10.1 beta 2 final releases are available
on Adobe Labs, more infos from Tom Barclay on the Flash Platform blog (including debug releases). I reactivated the links above but you can preferably go to Adobe Labs now.
Comments
The beta 2 downloads that you list are not final and should not be used. Please remove the links and stay tuned for an update at http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/.
Thanks,
Tom Barclay
Flash Player Product Marketing
I’m sorry Tom, but I did not have those links by breaking any NDA nor from any confidential source, as I wrote in my article, I officially found them here http://www.pcinpact.com/actu/news/54566-flash-101-beta-2-nvidia-19581.htm
PCInpact is a French website with really high traffic (and interesting news), there is already near 10,000 reads on their news, it will change nothing if I remove links from my website.
But from what you said I understand that users need to be warned that those version aren’t official. I have updated my post to warn them. I hope you understand and that is sufficient for Adobe.
