Welcome to Video Dev Days 2019
The VideoLAN non-profit organization is happy to invite you to the multimedia open-source event of the summer!
For its eleventh edition, people from the VideoLAN and open source multimedia communities will meet in Tokyo to discuss and work on the future of the open-source multimedia community.
This is a very technical conference, focused on low-level multimedia.
Traveling to Japan
You should consider staying a bit longer to Japan, if you can afford a few extra days.
You should take care of your passport and, if applicable, your visa very quickly!
Rémi has written a short guide about that: traveling advice for Japan.
Sponsorship for Japan
If you want VideoLAN to sponsor your trip, you should read the Sponsorship Policy.

Transportation
- Public transport: FIXME
NOTE: VideoLAN does not refund taxi expenses nor car rentals.
Power supply
In Tokyo the electrical supply is:
- Voltage: 100 V
- Frequency: 50 Hz
This is different from almost anywhere else, so check the markings on your electrical adapters before you come.
Power sockets follow the Type A standard, the same as in North America. This is totally incompatible with European and Commonwealth connectors. If you come from Ye Old Continent, you will need adapters. Buy passive adapters BEFORE YOU COME!!! In Japan, you will mostly find adpaters for Japanese going to Europe, not for Europeans coming to Japan.
Also note that Western Japan uses 60 Hz, so look out for that if you will be visiting Kansai.
Internet
Please bring your own internet.
