    Happy Friday! Cheers to company culture. 🛹

    🛹 Last time I posted a skateboarding video, many of you pointed out that I should be wearing a helmet. Fair point. Between working with customers on some of the first MOQ streaming implementations, releasing new features for both Red5 Pro and Red5 Cloud, launching the Red5 live streaming app, publishing Forbes articles, and gearing up for IBC 2026, it's a good reminder that work-life balance matters. Taking time to recharge outside of work helps keep us creative, focused, and ready for the challenges ahead. And protecting the brain that comes up with all those streaming ideas isn't a bad idea either. Happy Friday.

    🧩 MOQ5: The Open-Source Foundation for MOQ Hardware Support Explore the MOQ5 library: https://hubs.la/Q04pBNF40 MOQ5 is an open-source native C library developed by Raymond Lucke, our Senior Software Architect, to support both media ingest and egress over Media over QUIC Transport. Its modular, transport-independent architecture gives developers and hardware vendors a reusable foundation for adding MOQ support across encoders, players, relays, mobile devices, and other streaming infrastructure. Red5 is already using MOQ5 as the foundation for integrations with OBS, FFmpeg, and GStreamer, while Swift and upcoming Kotlin bindings extend support to iOS and Android development. By making the core library open source, we aims to reduce duplicated development work, improve interoperability, and accelerate native MOQ adoption across software and hardware platforms. #Red5 #MOQ5 #MediaOverQUIC #OpenSource #LiveStreaming

    🐣 Red5 MOQ Beta Explained: How It Works, Features, and How to Get Started Explore the updated page: https://hubs.la/Q04pj_5F0 See how we supports the complete MOQ workflow: 1. Ingest video through existing hardware and protocols, including WebRTC, WHIP, SRT, RTMP, RTSP, and Zixi. MOQ ingest is also supported through the open-source MOQ5 library developed by us. We are partnering with hardware vendors such as Osprey Video, Videon, and Amino to enable MOQ hardware encoding and simplify integration into existing broadcast and streaming workflows. 2. Red5 Video Packager converts incoming streams into MOQ-compatible outputs. 3. Red5 MOQ relays distribute streams across regions and networks, enabling customers to build a scalable MOQ delivery layer. Red5 deploys this infrastructure through CacheFly CDN as part of Red5 Cloud, or choose Red5 Pro to deploy it on your own infrastructure. 4. Through our partnership with EZDRM, Red5 enables DRM-protected MOQ workflows and supports C2PA content authenticity and provenance standards. 5. Red5 MOQ video players provide playback. By developing the transport libraries, relay infrastructure, and playback technology, Red5 delivers an integrated end-to-end MOQ ecosystem with faster innovation and a consistent roadmap. #Red5 #MOQ #LiveStreaming #OpenMOQ

    🤔 Does adopting MOQ mean replacing your streaming hardware? It's one of the biggest misconceptions we hear. Many assume that moving to Media over QUIC (MOQ) means buying new cameras, encoders, or production equipment. In reality, that's not how most deployments will work. The real opportunity is integrating MOQ into existing workflows - not starting from scratch. In our latest deep dive, we look at: - Why most existing hardware can continue to play a role - Where protocol translation makes sense - How organizations can adopt MOQ without abandoning their current infrastructure - What this means for the future of real-time streaming Read the full blog: https://hubs.ly/Q04nRmnJ0 #MOQ #MediaOverQUIC #Streaming #LiveStreaming #VideoStreaming #WebRTC #RealTime #Infrastructure

    ⚾ Innovation, Insight, and the Future of Live Sports Production Great conversations and valuable insights came out of last week’s 2026 SVG Regional Sports Production Summit. Red5's SVP of Global Sales, Brett Fasullo, enjoyed connecting with industry peers and hearing from leaders across the sports media landscape. From the keynote sessions to discussions on AI-powered production, cloud workflows, regional sports networks, streaming, team-owned media, and the evolving media rights ecosystem, the agenda highlighted how innovation continues to reshape live sports production. It was exciting to see the new BravesVision in action, by the Atlanta Braves. Also what Haivision is doing for the Major League Baseball (MLB). Thanks to the Sports Video Group team for bringing the industry together for another outstanding event. We look forward to continuing the conversations! #SVG #SportsProduction #SportsBroadcasting #LiveProduction #SportsMedia #Red5
