# Hero OSMF 1.0 Integration - Functional and Design Specification
----
## Glossary
HTTP Streaming: http://www.adobe.com/products/httpdynamicstreaming/
## Summary and Background
For Flex Hero, we will upgrade to OSMF 1.0. In addition to the general upgrade work, we will also provide support for HTTP Streaming.
## Usage Scenarios
Ken has set up his server to support HTTP Streaming and has created some on-demand assets. To view a dynamic stream using the Spark VideoPlayer component he sets the component's source property to the URL of the HTTP stream.
**NOTE**:HTTP Streaming is only supported when used with the VideoDisplay source property or the VideoPlayer source property. It is not designed to be used with the DynamicStreamingVideoSource or the DynamicStreamingVideoItem classes.
## API Description
No API changes.
## B Features
* Cue points--embedded and actionscript (B+ feature)
* DVR Support (B feature)
* Exposing the underlying mediaPlayer object publicly and accepting more OSMF objects directly (B feature)
* Other new features (needs more investigation/OSMF input)
## Examples and Usage
To take advantage of the HTTP Streaming support just set the URL of the content in the source property as you would for any other content.
