OSMF

OSMF's architecture reduces the time spent on creating and deploying a multimedia player, allowing developer and owners to focus on the overall quality and user experience.

The framework supports developing and deploying players for desktop, mobile, and TV platforms.

Plug-ins for advertising, reporting and content delivery along with standard player features such as playback controls, video navigation, buffering, and Dynamic Streaming make this a top notch developer tool.

Features:

• Completely open plug-in API available to any service provider or OSMF developer
• Plug-ins can be written for CDN, analytics, and advertising services
• Feature plug-ins also cover things like closed captioning and SMIL support
• Traditional pre-, mid-, and post-roll as well as overlay ads and bugs
• Controlling multiple regions outside the video player, including banner and companion ads as well as the overall branding of the HTML page
• Multiple types of media - video, audio, images, and SWFs
• Multiple delivery protocols including streaming and progressive, RTMP, HTTP, RTMFP
• VOD, Live, and DVR
• Built-in multi-bitrate logic with customizable switching rules
• Efficient connection logic for quick start playback
• Buffer management for minimal playback interruptions

What is new in this release:

• Improved OSMF's switching logic for HTTP Dynamic Streaming and addressing some of the related bugs.
