Download and develop

Open Images is being developed as an open platform to be used and improved by others.

Based upon MMBase and developed in Java it uses mainy other open soure tools like FFmpeg, FFmpeg2Theora, MySQL, Apache Tomcat and ImageMagick. Besides being multi-language and that its advanced search is enabled by Lucene, it uses HTML5 video and audio tags to play media but has a fallback for less able browsers using the Java applet Cortado and the Flash applet Flowplayer.

The Open Images Platform is free software and is released under GNU General Public License version 3.
