The Conference
for Video Devs

October 24th - 25th, 2023
Terra Gallery, San Francisco

The Demuxed mascot stands on a step stool with hammer in hand, facing a wall. On that wall, three ornate picture frames. In those frames, three pictures of three letters: I, P, and B, reminding us of video compression picture types

Why attend?

  • No marketing, ever.

    Speakers are selected based on their submission, not how much money their company paid; we will never, ever sell a speaking slot. Attendee information isn't for sale either, and that includes any sponsors.

  • 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 code of conduct.

  • After Party

    After 2 long days of talks, we'll head all the way to...the downstairs of the venue! Put your feet up, grab some refreshments, and hang out with your fellow video engineers. Sponsored by:

About us

Demuxed is video engineers talking about video technology. Our first meeting was a single day event back in 2015, born out of the SF Video Technology meetup. The video industry had plenty of trade shows and other opportunities for The Business, but our goal was to create a conference and community for the engineers building the technology powering video, from encoding, to delivery, to playback, and beyond. We've grown a lot since then, but our goal remains the same.

After creating Demuxed, some of the organizers went on to start and work at Mux. Mux continues to sponsor most of the organizational work behind the scenes (thanks for the salary!), but Demuxed is, at its core, a community-led event.

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. These folks are the ones hanging out in Video Dev Slack, and they hail from all over the industry.

The Demuxed mascot stares on in confusion as a machine called Demu-GPT spits out new anthropomorphic mascots according to its prompt, 'create tv character'. The mascots travel down a conveyor belt, immediately into a trash bin
