What is Azure Media Player

Azure Media Player is an HTML5 web player capable of playing back adaptive streaming content from Azure Media Services.  It utilizes a variety of different technologies and uses the power of Azure Media Services to automatically select the correct underlying technology and streaming format to reach the most popular devices with ease.  Regardless of the underlying technology, developers have a unified JavaScript interface to access APIs. This allows for content served by Azure Media Services to be played across a wide-range of devices and browsers without any extra effort. Click here to learn more.
