Ambulant Player Demos
This page provides links to various demo presentations for each of the AMBULANT family players. These demos are meant as technology demonstrators that may be used to verify player installation. Where applicable, they fall under the terms of the licenses for the individual players for which they have been developed.
Please note that the media objects referenced in each demo may NOT be used in any other presentation.
Most of the demos are available in four versions:
1. As a plug-in version, to be used in a browser after installing the Ambulant Plug-In player;
2. As a URL for use in the AMBULANT desktop player (using http streaming);
3. As a URL for use in the AMBULANT desktop player using RTSP;
4. As a URL for the iPhone, which will automatically start Ambulant; and
5. As a .zip file, for downloading the source.
Important: Most browsers will not let you click on a demo http or rtsp URL and pass it to AMBULANT. You should copy the links for cases (2) and (3) in the tables below and paste them into the File->Open URL box in AMBULANT.
Note: The iPhone links only work if you have Ambulant for iPhone installed, which is not yet generally available.
