C. Usage Instructions

The MASTSample app is a pure AS3 application which loads a MAST document, parses it and displays a preroll video ad.
When you run the application, you'll see a 10-15 second preroll, followed by a 30 second video.  The preroll
is generated from the VAST document located at the URL referenced in MASTSample.as. 

Note that not all MAST elements are supported in the current release.  The OSMF MAST specification (located
at http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/osmf/MAST+Support has additional details on the current scope of
MAST support within OSMF.
