Introduction

MFX library allows for video decoding and encoding within the browser.

This includes:

  • Full decoding and encoding of Video frames as native buffers
  • Video pipeline via Web Streams
  • GPU effects

Fundamentals​

The building block of MFX are WebStreams. Video files can be read from a fetch readable stream and piped into a decoder to get the raw frames.

The frames themselves then are manipulated via "effects" applied through GPU shaders (via WebGL) and can be re-encoded in the original or other video formats.
