We are continually improving the Blaze player to add support for Flash features. Although it can run the majority of Flash movies, including movies written in ActionScript 2, there remain actionscript and author-time features to be added. This page is a comprehensive list of these features up to Flash 7, and it is updated regularly to reflect the frequent additions to the player.
Recent additions include:
