Overview

Open Source Media Framework (OSMF), currently in public prerelease, enables developers to easily assemble pluggable components to create high-quality, full-featured playback experiences. The open aspect of the framework enables collaborative development focused on web video monetization, with lower costs and faster turnaround.

This project is intended to facilitate the development and sharing of open standards and best practices for video player applications built on the Adobe Flash Platform. Media players today are a nexus of complexity for so many technologies, services, and providers that the project can best tackle these integration challenges through an open source approach. This site serves as a resource for the industry, encouraging the use of standards and best practices and offering the open source library.

This site is focused on the development of the Open Source Media Framework, which can be leveraged in ActionScript 3 or MXML. For more information about building video applications in Adobe Flash CS4 Professional or Adobe Flash Builder, you may wish to visit the Video Technology Center on the Adobe Developer Connection.
