GStreamer Spring Hackfest 2025
The team attended the GStreamer Spring Hackfest 2025 in Nice. Read what we learned, worked on and enjoyed during that weekend
Browsers
Expert media engine solutions for Chromium, WebKit, Firefox, and more
Fluendo excels in browser media engines and CEF-based embedded solutions, seamlessly integrating GStreamer with WebAssembly for optimal web codec support.
Empower your browser applications
Browsers are the ultimate application development example, leveraging the latest technologies for better performance and resource efficiency. Fluendo has extensive experience working on the core of the most popular browsers, including Chromium (Chrome, Opera, Edge, etc.), WebKit (Safari, WebKitGTK, etc.), and Firefox.
Media capture and playback are essential features in modern browsers. Nearly all browsers are built on FFmpeg or implement custom engines for video processing. Chromium, for example, has developed a sophisticated media GPU component to handle platform-specific hardware encoders and decoders. A standout area of Fluendo’s proficiency is the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF), an open-source framework for embedding Chromium-based browsers within other applications. Our clients in the Virtual Desktop Access (VDA) industry widely use this technology for multimedia redirection.

Web codecs with GStreamer and WebAssembly (WASM)
In recent years, Fluendo has advanced the integration of GStreamer with WebAssembly (WASM). This project aims to:
- Allow third-party codecs through a seamless WebCodecs API.
- Introduce cutting-edge codecs like VVC and LC-EVC to the web.
- Support legacy codecs such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4 Part 2, WMV, and VCI.
- Simplify web integration for third-party companies to bring their products to the web effortlessly.
