Why? Attend Demuxed
-
No paid content, ever.
Speakers are selected by a committee of engineers that work across the industry so the talks are picked based on the submission, not how much money a company paid; we will never, ever sell a speaking slot. Attendee information isn't for sale either, and that includes any sponsors. Read more about the submission review process.
-
Affordable.
We want anyone in the industry to be able to come, which means keeping tickets reasonably priced (thanks largely to our generous sponsors). We also offer free and discounted tickets to students and open source contributors, so please reach out if you're interested.
-
For everyone in the community.
Our community is dedicated to providing an inclusive, enjoyable experience for everyone in the video industry. In this pursuit, and in keeping with our love for reasonable standards, we adopted the Ada Initiative's Conf Code of Conduct.

Demuxed Schedule
Our Schedule
We take our talk selection and schedule-building process very seriously. This year we received over 150 talk submissions, and 29 individuals from across the online video industry reviewed those (anonymized) submissions for a total of over 2900 reviews. A smaller group from that committee then took those aggregated reviews and helped pick the very best schedule possible, optimizing for talks that are relevant, interesting, and diverse.
Keep in mind, the individual session times and their order are subject to change, so make sure to check back here for any updates.

Closing Remarks
After party!
This year's after party kicks off at 6pm Thursday right at the conference venue. Space is limited, so as much as we'd love for friends and colleagues to join us, please keep hold of your badge for the evening.
Venue & location
The Midway, SF
The Midway is a new, multifaceted creative complex, located in San Francisco’s burgeoning Dogpatch neighborhood. Equal parts creative laboratory and performance space, The Midway is a sprawling 40,000 square-foot venue for the public to engage with a variety of exhibitions, workshops, performances and special events. Housing art, food, music & emerging technologies under one synergistic and collaborative roof, The Midway is the perfect place for San Francisco’s creative communities to collide.
TheMidwaySFAbout Demuxed
Demuxed is simply engineers talking about video technology. After years of chatting about video at the SF Video Technology Meetup, we decided it was time for an engineer-first event with quality technical talks about video. Our focus has traditionally been on content delivered over the web, but topics cover anything from encoding to playback and more!
Yeah but who are you?
Most of the organization and work behind the scenes is done by folks from Mux (Demuxed came first ☝️) but none of this would be possible without amazing people from the meetup.
Every year we get a group together that's kind enough to do things like schedule planning, help brainstorm cool swag, and, most importantly, argue heatedly over which talk submissions should make the final cut.
