= Welcome to Video Dev Days 2021 =

'''VDD 2021 did not end up happening due to the global pandemic.'''

The [[VideoLAN]] non-profit organization is happy to invite you to the multimedia open-source event of the fall!

For its twelfths edition, people from the VideoLAN and open source multimedia communities will meet in '''Amsterdam''' to discuss and work on the future of the open-source multimedia community.

This is a very technical conference, focused on low-level multimedia.

== Who can come? ==

Literally every one is invited to VDD, we just need registration for legal reason ''(to enter the building)''.

This is a technical conference, focused on low-level multimedia, like codecs and their implementations like '''x264''' or '''dav1d''', frameworks like '''FFmpeg''' or '''Gstreamer''' or playback libraries like '''libVLC'''.

Things like Javascript video frameworks or ad-injection frameworks would be considered out of scope.

The price to enter is totally '''Free'''.
