Adobe's Open Source Media Framework (OSMF) provides a standard set of classes and interfaces for media and metadata designed to make it easy to build rich media experiences and plug-ins for players using on the OSMF. In this talk, Derek Wischusen, Sr. Flash Developer at KickApps, gives an overview of OSMF, shows how KickApps is using OSMF to power customizable video players in their App Studio, discusses OSMF plug-in development, and relates how KickApps is positioning its App Studio as a distribution platform for OSMF plug-ins.
