I contribute to OSS very often, mostly sponsored by the company I work for (we're in video streaming, and we're too small to build everything from scratch). Outside of company hour…

Hey, thank you! You're not the first to mention the docs. I'll have a full rewrite of the docs planned shortly where I'll address your (& others) valid points.

I didn't know membrane until now. We do some things similarly (like transcode), although I'd like to provide the full chain, from source to playback with real-time video manipulati…

Author here, this is a fun surprise to wake up to! I was doubting whether my project was "ready to post on HN" but someone beat me to it. With Superstreamer, I'd like to create bui…

I'm building a video API suite [0] in my free time, from transcode to package to player. The full shebang! [0]: https://github.com/matvp91/mixwave

Hi there HN! I'm Matthias and I've been into video streaming for quite a while now. Over the years I've built plenty of small setups, often CLI tools to test and debug streaming vi…

There isn't much info out there yet, but this video is a small preview: https://youtu.be/lGEMwh32soc The latest update is mentioned in the March 2023 blog post: https://react.dev/b…

As a parent of an almost 2 year old (tomorrow!), I feel a bit worried of what is yet to come. I notice kids around me (family, kids of friends) ranging 3 to 10+ mostly consume YouT…

While I agree HN shouldn't be used as a way to get direct customer support, I don't think it's fair to grab and point our pitchforks to @jgrahamc over a one sided story. There's no…

Side note, synthetic events are no longer pooled since React 17. There's no longer a noticable performance gain with more modern browsers nowadays.

Happy newyear from Belgium!

Providing adaptive video (MPEG-DASH / HLS on any non Safari browser) still requires JS though.

How would one ship a full engine with an app on an OTT device? I've built a few TV apps but they all relied on the browser engines shipped with webOS and Tizen.

They were valid years ago when I was a kid but god knows what my favorite food was 10 years ago.

The person I was chatting with triggered the password reset mail, and stripped my security questions. As said, I was in exactly the same situation and probably entered random answe…

Give their chat another try. I went through the same a while back and they reset my password.

Wanted to read through the docs but I'm getting a 404 from the page link at the top.

That's a very primitive approach. Once you're dealing with adaptive formats (DASH, HLS) containing multiple renditions (different bitrates) and/or codecs, it gets more complicated.…

Not so sure that'll work due to the fact that the first segment in a subset of segments is not the init segment (thus missing atoms like moov, ...)

I didn't verify this but my guess is that with the lack of the MSE API on Safari iOS, YT has no other option but to serve the HLS manifest directly to the video element thus it's a…

I've actually found myself coding in the evening again due to quarantine. Contributing to OSS, releasing stuff on GitHub, ...

These two comments are fixed and will be available in a new version in a few minutes!

I've added different volume icons based on the current volume, shall hit production anytime!
