Ohio Supreme Court oral argument streaming

The Ohio Supreme Court has announced that, beginning Tuesday, Sept. 16th., it will begin a transition from streaming live oral arguments and other programs using the Real Media (.rm) format to Flash Video (.flv).

The Court’s announcement says that “Beginning with the Sept. 16 and 17 oral argument sessions, users will have the option of accessing either the Real Media stream, which requires the free RealPlayer, or the Flash Video stream, which requires the free Adobe Flash Player; but, beginning Sept. 30, the Court will stream live events exclusively in Flash.”

Oral arguments and other events are currently archived only in RealMedia format, but these will eventually be transposed to the new Flash Video as well.
