Plyr is now officially deprecated and it's time to give Video.js 10 a whirl! plyr.io/
Thanks for all the support over the years! 🙏

Friends ran for 10 seasons.
David Tennant was the 10th Doctor Who.
The Great Longneck Migration was the 10th Land Before Time.
VJS 10 is now GA. Smol, customizable, and plays nice with your agents so they can help you migrate like Littlefoot.

Reboot time, baby. After 16 years, we teamed up with Plyr, Vidstack and Media Chrome to make the open source player that the web deserves (again). Check out the v10 blog post, try it out, and give us feedback.

Vidstack, Media Chrome, Plyr. Now we're building one player together — Video.js v10, from the ground up.
Here's my part of the story.

Video.js is getting completely rebuilt.
Created by our co-founder @heff, we're stepping up as the new corporate steward, and are doing a complete rewrite: composable and framework-native.
Shoutout to the Video.js team: @gkatsev, Garrett Singer, @luwes, @mihar_22, @sam_potts, @cjpillsbury, @QualabsUy, and @CastLabs.

Kick the tires, and let us know what you think. This is just the beginning of what we can build together.

This is my submission to the @codetv_dev + @MuxHQ worst video player challenge 💥

Doing video on the web really, really well is hard. Just today a customer asked me for help on why their videos worked on Chrome but not Safari iOS 🥴
Excited to have @muxhq join the @vercel marketplace to make
Mux Video is now available directly in the @vercel marketplace with the new Mux + Vercel integration
Player.style is live! Media player themes built with web components. Would love your feedback. There’s also a conversation happening on Hacker News.

We built an open source set of web components for building media players called Media Chrome. I'm really proud of it!
But, tbh, there was a lot of "draw the rest of the owl" vibes to actually make a nice player. I'm pumped to launch the rest of the owl:

Substack is for video.
Mux is for Substack.
Huge props to Substack on the launch of their expanded video experience!
Today we’re excited to expand our video capabilities to support the great shows already being produced on Substack and to enable new types of subscriber-supported work built around video. read.substack.com/p/substack…
Great work team!

Media Chrome (web components for video players) is now 1.0. Go forth and put in prod. mux.com/blog/media-chrome-tu…
@MuxHQ #HTML #javascript #webcomponents
Currently reading the Web Platform Design Principles...for fun. I'm way too deep in this #webcomponents thing. And also this is a great resource for any API design. w3.org/TR/design-principles/

Introducing Mux Meet → mux-meet-demo.vercel.app
It's an open-source template for building video conferencing apps – think Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams.
Built with @nextjs, @vercel, and @MuxHQ by the talented @liam_lindner 🤩

Mux Player. Now in GA. And now with so many customizations (just like you asked.) Have at it, friends: mux.com/player
From my @demuxed ⚡️ talk yesterday: thanks to web components you're now just one HTML tag away from using Shaka Player in your web app.

cc @GoogleChromeDev since Joey and Shaka apparently aren't on Twitter 🙃
