Adobe Announces Media Player, Adobe TV
Techtree News Staff, Apr 09, 2008 1405 hrs IST
Adobe Media Player (AMP) allows users to play Web-based Flash content on PCs as well as Macs, and is based on the Adobe AIR application.
Adobe has today announced its entry into the field of Internet video playback with a Flash-based media player christened Adobe Media Player (AMP), along with Adobe TV. The software was first announced at the Web 2.0 Expo almost a year ago.
Adobe Media Player allows users to play Web-based Flash content on PCs as well as Macs. The cross-platform, customizable media player is based on the Adobe AIR (Adobe Integrated Runtime) application. This means, you'll be able to watch videos online or offline. But you know how this will work: you'll be able to stream videos and view them when you're online; when you're offline though, you'll only be able to watch the videos that you've downloaded. AMP promises to display videos in 1080p, 720p, or 480i video display resolutions.
In order to provide viewers with a wide range of television programs and other video content, Adobe has teamed up with major television broadcasters and content publishers like CBS, MTV Networks, Universal Music Group, PBS, Cond Net, and Scripps Networks for AMP. Users will be able to subscribe to television shows and other online video content, automatically receiving new episodes of the shows as they become available.
Along with AMP, Adobe has also announced Adobe TV as a network within AMP comprising a series of shows. It works like a catalogue where users can find content to download and watch. Meanwhile, you can download Adobe Media Player here.
