Adobe has released a new version of its Flash Player for Mac that officially supports hardware acceleration for H.264 video content.

The feature, code-named "Gala," had been announced several months prior, but was unavailable with the official release of Flash Player 10.1 for Mac in June. In a break from usual protocol, Adobe enabled the new feature in a security release.

Hardware acceleration in Flash Player 10.1 for Mac is available only for Mac OS X Snow Leopard and the certain graphics cards. Up to two-thirds of CPU utilization reduction is possible when GPU hardware acceleration is active, according to Adobe.
