VidZapper Insider - Extensibility

VidZapper has come a long way in a very short time; after just a year on the market it's overtaking the established players and winning major deployments. But we're not complacent. We know that we need to keep on developing. Indeed, we have a two year development cycle worked out, which is adjusted to the needs and demands of our resellers and their clients.

But sometimes some substantial changes in approach are called for and we are constantly looking at the core architecture underlying the application.

After recently introducing an API, two fundamental elements of the platform we're currently looking at are the player (or, as old timers would call it, UI or GUI) and what we call the VidZapper Component Framework, or, as they are now called, plug-ins, or apps.

Over the next few months we will be releasing a new player builder for non-technical developers, and will also introduce the VCF, to enable anyone to develop new apps, or to integrate VidZapper with existing applications.
