Our Storyboard Embedded Engine is now integrated with QNX's Aviage Multimedia Suite. Through our work with one of our consumer customers we have added support in our script engine to easily query and control the Aviage Multimedia engine.

Storyboard uses LUA  for it's scripting engine and this provides a very nice and easy interface to Aviage. LUA is great a scripting interface for something like Aviage since it's small, fast and embeds well with C/C++ applications (allowing direct access to system facilities). Also LUA is very extendable with it's modules and packages which is something we made use of for our multimedia plugin.   More info to come..... stay tuned.
