Adobe Unveils Flash Media Server 3.5 Software
Adobe Systems announced Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 software and Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 software, two key components of the Adobe Flash Platform, the standard for delivering breakthrough interactive content, applications, and video on the Web.
The new servers include new media delivery options, such as: dynamic streaming; enhanced H.264 video and High Efficiency AAC audio support; and the ability to pause and seek within a live stream. These innovations improve the quality of video delivered over the Web and offer richer interactive experiences for users.
The new versions, which are being showcased at Adobe MAX North America in San Francisco, advance the company’s leadership in rich media and open significant new opportunities for content owners delivering interactive and social media applications.
New features and functionality in both servers include: dynamic streaming to provide end-users with a broadcast-quality, uninterrupted viewing experience; improved content protection; and the ability to stream live and on-demand content with H.264 video files. Media encrypted with the Adobe Flash Media Rights Management Server software can also be streamed using RTMP and an integrated HTTP server for a complete turnkey solution to deliver comprehensive media experiences.
In addition, Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 software includes live Digital Video Recorder (DVR) functionality that enables pause and seek within a live video stream, multipoint publishing — including the ability to inject data messages into a live stream — and mobile delivery to Flash Lite 3, either live or on-demand.
The breakthrough innovations in Adobe Flash Media Server 3.5, such as the ability to pause and seek in a live video stream, are enabling content providers to use the Internet to deliver experiences that go beyond the traditional broadcast realm.
