GPAC

Comprehensive, Cutting-Edge and Open Source

GPAC is a visionary, standards-compliant multimedia framework that transcends traditional audio-video streaming use-cases. It is a comprehensive, open-source solution addressing a multitude of multimedia processing needs. With over two decades of evolution and deployment across major industry players, GPAC has established itself as a critical infrastructure component in video streaming services.

Ensuring that your media solutions are not only universally compatible but also compliant with global standards is pivotal in maintaining a robust, reliable, and reputable media streaming service. The release of GPAC 2.0 in 2022 marked a significant milestone in the 20-year history of the project, introducing a new era of enhanced support for multimedia formats and platforms. This version offers a total transformation, ensuring seamless experiences across diverse platforms.

A Hub for Open Standards and Innovation

Since its inception, GPAC has championed open standards and has fostered a culture of shared development. It has been a leading advocate for the ISO/MPEG Base Media File Format (ISOBMFF, MP4) since 2003, contributing to its Emmy-awarded recognition in the streaming industry.

Navigating Licensing with Motion Spell

While available under the LGPL v2.1 license for general use, Motion Spell offers alternative licensing models for those seeking to utilize GPAC beyond these terms. This flexibility ensures that businesses can leverage GPAC’s capabilities while contributing to its ongoing development and sustainability.
