Overview

Adobe Flash is a multimedia technology developed and distributed by Adobe Systems. Flash is used primarily for two purposes:

adding animation and interactivity to web pages, including advertisements and games (via a scripting language called ActionScript);
integrating streaming audio and video into web pages.

With AVObjects' components, two new use cases have become available:

use Flash animation and ActionScript to design advanced screen layouts for broadcasting purposes: animated graphics, dynamic content (news tickers, weather, currencies, etc.) - with the Flash Overlay DirectShow Filter;
import Flash media (SWF and FLV files) into broadcasting applications, so that Flash content can be delivered to the consumer via traditional channels - see Flash DirectShow Source Filter.

All AVObjects' SDKs output stream in a way that it can be used as input for the Flash Media Encoder.
