Hi Kai, This forum is still alive though the activity is low currently. I've been too busy for a few months. Thanks for sharing your demos. > I have a naive Appcache version here: http://vcache.webconverger.com/ > and another more robust file API version I'm slowly working upon.

I think FileSystem API or Indexed DB are better and more robust than Appcache for storing video files. Besides, Appcache may be changed or deleted from the HTML5 spec. Appcache is marked as *at risk* in the HTML5 spec. http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/ Personally, I prefer Indexed DB than FileSystem API. Indexed DB is implemented by most of major browsers. But File API is not. Moziila is saying they won't support FileSystem API. https://hacks.mozilla.org/2012/07/why-no-filesystem-api-in-firefox/ Microsoft and Apple also may not support FileSystem API But I haven't tried Indexed DB for storing video files. I'm not sure that Indexed DB works well in this case for now. I'll try it when my current hard works are done.
