\section{Introduction}
-This package provides an interface to embed, in the first place, interactive Flash (SWF) and 3D objects (Adobe U3D \& PRC) into PDF documents. Video and sound files or streams in the popular MP4, FLV and MP3 formats can be embedded as well. However, a media player Flash component is required for playback, as will be explained shortly. Playback of multimedia files uses Adobe Flash Player, which was bundled with Adobe Reader 9 and 10 versions. Unfortunately, beginning with Adobe Reader 11, it must be installed as a separate plug-in.

Playback of multimedia files uses Adobe Flash Player, which was bundled with Adobe Reader 9 and 10 versions. Unfortunately, beginning with Adobe Reader 11, it must be installed as a separate plug-in.
Among the supported media types, video and sound files require an additional Flash (SWF) application for playback, which must be either embedded into the PDF or loaded at runtime from the internet. There are numerous such players, both open-source and commercial, available on the internet. One of them is the highly configurable open-source `StrobeMediaPlayback.swf'~\cite{strobe}, maintained by Adobe and hosted on \href{http://sourceforge.net/projects/osmf.adobe/files/}{SourceForge.net}. Package `media9' comes with an enhanced version of `StrobeMediaPlayback.swf'. In addition, two simple players for video and audio, `VPlayer.swf' and `APlayer.swf' are included, which can be used instead. They provide sufficient functionality for playing embedded files and streamed media.

-The final PDF can be viewed in current Adobe Readers on MS Windows and other platforms. On Unix platforms including Linux, however, support of Flash, video and sound was discontinued at Reader version 9.4.2, probably for security reasons. PDF documents which target \href{ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/9.x/9.4.1/}{Adobe Reader 9.4.1 for Linux} should use `VPlayer9.swf' and `APlayer9.swf' (also included in the `media9' package). These media player components are compatible with the older Flash Player 9 plugin that is bundled with the Reader for Linux. On tablets and phones running Android or iOS, ezPDF Reader was reported to play video and sound files embedded with `media9'.
