KickApps Brings Adobe’s Open Source Media Framework to Life

If you’re an Open Source Media Framework (www.opensourcemediaframework.com) developer, you need to join the KickApps OSMF developer program. We are integrating the OSMF into the KickApps App Studio, making it possible for the first time for developers to easily distribute their OSMF plug-ins to over 100,000 publishers and Flash video player developers at some of the largest brands and media companies around the world. For more information about OSMF, read this post by Elad Elrom.

The KickApps App Studio is a graphical user interface which allows anyone with a web browser to quickly and easily assemble highly customized, interactive, trackable and monetizable video players based on the Open Source Media Framework and the ecosystem of plug-ins that have been built on the framework. No technical experience is required to drag and drop the various video player components and publish an unlimited number of video players based on the OSMF. We have a short screencast of how it will work in the App Studio here.

Apply to join the program by emailing your contact information and a brief description of your OSMF plug-in to: OSMF@kickapps.com.

To use the App Studio, simply sign up for a KickApps account by clicking on the big red button at the top of this page.

Will you be at Adobe MAX 2009?

The KickApps team will be presenting at the FITC Unconference on Wednesday, October 7, 4PM.

This session is for developers of OSMF plug-ins, and anyone interested in leveraging the KickApps App Studio to distribute your online video technology to the thousands of publishers currently using the KickApps platform. In this session you will get an overview of the KickApps App Studio, and learn how to build your OSMF plug-ins for integration with it. We will review the OSMF architecture and drill down into specifics about plug-in implementation.

Come by booth #335 at Adobe MAX for more information.
