Adobe® Flash® Media Interactive Server 4 
Powerful and scalable multiprotocol media streaming 
Deliver more secure, scalable live and on-demand streaming, along with real-time 
multiway communication. Take advantage of network efficiencies with new IP 
multicast and HTTP Dynamic Streaming for superior playback quality. Enable 
consistent, more secure interactive playback experiences across the broadest range 
of platforms and devices. 
Experience a more secure, flexible multiprotocol delivery—Choose to deliver live and on-demand 
streams using the industry-standard HTTP protocol with HTTP Dynamic Streaming support or the 
industry-standard RTMP/RTMPE protocol. For HTTP delivery, the Adobe Flash Media Server 4 family of 
products enables live stream packaging including optionally adding digital rights management (DRM) 
protection with Adobe Flash Access™ 2 software. Deliver live and on-demand streams using the 
integrated HTTP server as an origin service, which can use standard HTTP caching and network 
infrastructures. Realize higher network efficiencies with new IP multicast support, saving bandwidth and 
network costs within the enterprise. 
Take advantage of support for social interaction—Benefit from the ubiquity of Flash Media Server, the 
underlying platform for the majority of multiway experiences that use Adobe Flash technology on the web 
today. Deliver breakthrough, engaging environments supported by enhanced multiway communications, 
HD-quality video, integrated live video streams, delivery to mobile devices, plus deeper interactivity 
through an extensible development architecture. 
Provide a superior playback experience—Take advantage of the enhanced functionality in Adobe Flash 
Player 10.1 software, which gives interactive access to media held in the buffer, enabling features such as 
faster seeking, trick mode playback (fast motion, slow motion, and frame stepping). It also allows the 
video player to reconnect to the server if the connection is lost while still playing out the contents of the 
buffer for smooth, uninterrupted playback. 
Get started easily—Implement the latest player features such as protection with Flash Access, DVR 
functionality, HTTP Dynamic Streaming, and RTMP Dynamic Streaming, with the choice of a prebuilt 
player, a hosted player, or the full Open Source Media Framework (OSMF). Adobe Flash Media Playback 
is a hosted solution that features cached player logic for optimized media playback. Strobe Media 
Playback allows designers, content owners, enterprises, and developers to get started more easily with 
an out-of-the-box, feature-rich media player, with the flexibility of open source code. If you prefer to 
build a completely custom player, leverage the standards-based OSMF, which can reduce the complexity 
of player development, allowing more time to focus on the overall user experience and content. 
Maintain unparalleled reach—Reach the widest possible audience by delivering content to Flash Player 
or Adobe AIR® applications, allowing users to stream premium content to Mac OS, Windows,® or Linux® 
desktops on the most ubiquitous media delivery platform. Deliver both live and on-demand streams to 
a growing number of mobile devices that support Flash Player 10.1. The same video experience in the 
browser can now be delivered smoothly to various mobile devices.
