We want to play back HLS in OSMF, and are looking for an experienced OSMF developer to do this.
Matthew Kaufman has already written most of the code for this:
http://code.google.com/p/apple-http-osmf/
However, it needs to be ported to the latest version of OSMF, and probably some fixes.
The obvious reference point is Adobe's implementation of HDS in the OSMF source, and there are many similarities between the two implementations.
My initial investigations involved doing the basics, have got it to compile but not correctly function.
Examples of things which need to be done:
I'd welcome quotes on the work.
Please reply in the thread, or via email ndoyle [at] regencymedia.com.au
I discovered the same thing, it's a shame that project hasn't been kept up to date, it could really help simplify content distribution side by only having to publish one set of streams for iOS and Flash...
If you have any luck porting it up to the latest version of OSMF please post back here!
I found this is implemented in JWPlayer, and initial testing show it works well.

(note the first test - apple's reference bip bop - doesn't work!)

Note it's not part of the core yet, but as I said, haven't found a serious problem with it yet.
