Package org.mmbase.applications.media Description

The MMBase media projects define an object model to represent meta data for 'media' formats like real audio streams and mp3 files. The necessary builder implementations can be find in the 'builders' subpackage.

Besides descriptive texts and other useful information it also models 'fragments' from streams, which is particular useful when you want to generate Smil or otherwise want to show something a small part of the entire stream.

Because the same content can be available as several streams, (think small-band/broad-band, more servers), there is functionality to make the selection which of the result URL's to offer. This functionality can be found in the 'filters' subpackage.

Generating the actual URL can also be done in several ways, and this is modelled by use of 'URLComposer's. Some URL's for example can contain start and stop times, titles etc. Perhaps only one mmbase object number is sufficient if the url points to e.g. a MMBase servlet. Which kind of URLComposer to use in which cases is determined by the URLComposerFactory class.
