Blend/In is a partnership program provides creative developers with an SDK for creating third party plug-ins for DoStudio such as authoring templates, scripts or other enhancements that will be supported and marketed with DoStudio. Certified Blend/In partners receive support from NetBlender development staff and a built in distribution channel. NetBlender will market and sell the plug-ins through the NetBlender website and share the revenue with you.
For more information about the Blend/In program developers should contact NetBlender at blendin(at)netblender.com. Our plug-in SDK is available now.
Building the Whole Product
We believe that DoStudio is the best BD authoring suite on the market and we’re just getting started. The power of Blu-ray will be unleashed when we tap into the collective genius of the global creative developer group. Blend/In is designed to help this process by offering developers a vehicle to share their innovations with the world – and get paid for it too.
Blend/In is an important part of the DoStudio product ecosystem. We are committed to delivering our customers a whole product that reaches beyond the core authoring tool itself. We are particularly interested in partners who will develop applications that realize the full potential of BD Live.
A Full Featured Partnership API
The Blend/In program gives developers access to a fully featured partnership API that allows them to create DoStudio plug-ins in three categories: Template-based Plug-ins, such as extensible menu designs; DoScript-based plug-ins, such as innovative animation schemes and network-enabled features; and DoStudio-based plug-ins which augment the authoring environment itself.
A New Revenue Opportunity
We know how difficult it is to bring a software product to market. We also know that there are many innovative products out there that have been developed in house or in the course of a production, but the innovators do not have the bandwidth to complete, test and market the product. That’s where Blend/In comes in.
When we certify a Blend/In partner we make a full commitment to supporting the development process. We fully test any product before we certify it for release so it meets professional software development standards. Then we sell it for you through our existing distribution channels and share the revenue with the Blend/In partner. We will soon add a Blend/In marketplace to the DoStudio website where the products are sold.
