The OSMF HLS Plugin is a plugin extension for OSMF (Open Source Media Framework) version 2.0 that enables playback of Apple’s HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) streams within Flash/OSMF-based video players. It supports various use cases (live, video-on-demand, DVR style) and handles HLS protocol tags, bitrate switching, discontinuities, etc., to allow AS3/Flash / AIR apps/players to use HLS as a streaming protocol. HLS playback in OSMF 2.0-based video players. Multi-bitrate streaming. VOD/Live/DVR content streaming. Dynamic buffering control for optimized playback (beta).

Features

  • HLS playback support in OSMF 2.0-based players (for both live and on-demand content)
  • Multi-bitrate streaming, letting players switch between qualities based on manifest stream info (EXT-X-STREAM-INF etc.)
  • Support for VOD, live streams, and DVR content streaming modes
  • Handling of discontinuities in HLS streams (#EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY tag)
  • Support for I-frames only (if I-frame only segments are used) and dealing with different tag types in manifests
  • Dynamic buffering control (beta) for optimizing playback, and optional tags like AES-128 encryption support (#EXT-X-KEY) for secured streams
