Disclaimer: As of January 12, 2021, excluding the China variant of Flash, the Flash executable has a built-in kill switch that prevents it from playing Flash files. As of February 2021, all major browsers block Flash and cannot play it. Only IE11, niche browser forks, and some browsers built for China plan to continue support.

Streaming allows users to serve their content directly from Akamai® edge servers rather than downloading full files before they are viewable. Using the OSMF plugins lets developers make their own Adobe Flash players, giving them the flexibility to customize and brand them as they want.

Download the Advanced Streaming Plugin for OSMF.

Because OSMF plugins enable you to develop your own Flash video player and embed it as needed into your website, Rackspace does not have step-by-step instructions. If you are looking for a player that does not require development by your team, try our FlowPlayer plugins for Streaming over the Akamai CDN.
