I’m excited to share with you the launch of Supercast, a premium service for DirecTV subscribers that allows viewers to watch all NFL games in high-quality h264 video encoding, while getting the latest scores, plays, and highlights.

While Flash video in the browser is great, the AIR application leverages a number of desktop API’s to improve the viewing experience, while providing DRM support that makes this type of application viable to media companies like DirecTV.

I think this project also proves there is commercial viability for AIR applications. Its probably the first AIR app that you can’t install, which is too bad because its one of the best. Definitely check it out if you have NFL Sunday ticket.

While I got to get my coding mitts in early on the project, the lion’s share of the application was built out by two talented consulting groups - Blitz Agency and gskinner.com. Congrats!
