We shipped *a lot* in 2025. This year was about making sure Mux felt at home wherever you're building — whether it's in Vercel, WordPress, Datadog, your AI agent, or anywhere else. Take a stroll down memory lane with @DaveKiss in our latest newsletter. connect.mux.com/mux-2025-re...

The future of video players on the web is getting a lot more cohesive. In our November newsletter: ✔️ Steve on what Video.js v10 means for the ecosystem ✔️ Wesley on lessons learned from media-chrome ✔️ Sam on Plyr's path to open-source success ➕ Mux DRM goes GA, SupaSearch with Supabase, & more

"It's fast, stable, and requires zero maintenance from our side." — Neil Gandhi, CEO of Send.co Send.co adds AI chat to sales docs so prospects can ask questions about proposals, pricing, and product demos instantly. When video became a bottleneck, Mux eliminated the delays.

DRM is now GA in Mux! It’s media-grade security that you can use to protect your content. Read our latest blog post to figure out if DRM is right for you and how to get started: www.mux.com/blog/protec...

"Hold on, I know it's in here somewhere." You saw an incredible moment in a talk six months ago. Now you need it. But which video was it? What timestamp? Time to start scrubbing. Not anymore. We built semantic search for 10 years of Demuxed talks.

Good infrastructure is invisible — until it's not. In this month's newsletter, @davekiss.com looks at what's under the surface, why reliability matters, and what's new at Mux. 📱 HEVC codec support for faster encoding 📊 Filter sets in Mux Data ⭐️ Customer stories: Taiv, Reelay, and Smartzer

Video.js is getting completely rebuilt. Created by our co-founder Steve Heffernan, we're stepping up as the new corporate steward, and are doing a complete rewrite: composable and framework-native.

Demuxed day 1 in the books ✅ Shoutout to Christian Pillsbury for his great talk on streaming and HTTP, and to everyone who stopped to chat at the booth. Back at it tomorrow and looking forward to Steve Heffernan's talk on Video.js.

hahaha, jajaja, kekeke — with automated video dubbing, dad jokes can now get chuckles in multiple languages. @davekiss.com built a workflow using: ➡️ Mux to extract audio from static renditions ➡️ @elevenlabs.io for AI dubbing and voice translation ➡️ @n8n.io to orchestrate the entire workflow

Mux Player embeds are currently experiencing increased error rates caused by an outage with an underlying cloud vendor, which is also preventing updates to our status page - we will continue to post updates here until the issue is resolved.

We just launched filter sets in Mux Data. Save any combination of filters under a name and reuse them anywhere. Create "Poor mobile experience APAC" once, and your entire team uses the same filtered view.

"We wanted to find a super simple, off-the-shelf solution that would allow us to aggregate all of that, standardize the format, re-encode everything, and have it work quickly and seamlessly." — Jordan Davis, Co-Founder and CTO at Taiv

"Mux just cut their costs. I don't know that I've ever experienced that in my entire career as an entrepreneur." - Deric Frost, Reelay Founder & CEO Most vendors raise prices, but Mux cut video infrastructure costs by up to 23%. Plus, with Instant Cold Storage, Reelay saves 60% on unviewed videos.

"Mux has transformed our workflow from building complex, custom solutions to simply toggling features on and off." - Adrian Burns, Smartzer Senior Software Eng. Smartzer's eng. team was spending 20% of its time on manual video encoding + captioning. With Mux, those became simple API calls.

Mux Video is now 20% more affordable!!! ✅ Lower encoding costs ✅ Lower storage costs ✅ Lower delivery costs Plus, so many more refinements and adjustments to make it easier for developers to build video into their products and workflows affordably Blog links in thread ⬇️

AI customer support sounds easy: Step 1: Add chatbot 🤖 Step 2-9: ??? Step 10: Happy customers 😊 Yeah… not quite. At Mux, we built AI support tools. Some things worked. A lot didn’t. Lessons + takeaways in this post by our Director of Self Service 👇 (link in thread)

“Whether you like it or not, Tailwind is good for your team.” That was @darius.cool, one of the coders behind our website. He’s not here to convince you to switch over (maybe a little), but to offer a fresh perspective on why opinionated tools might be exactly what your development workflow needs.

We just launched the Mux MCP — now AI agents can seamlessly work with your video. Take it for a spin! mux.com/blog/mux-mcp

Apple dropped a haptic movie trailer for #F1TheMovie... but it only works on iPhone. Our Director of Product Management reverse-engineered how they did it and how you can apply it to Android — cuz Apple users shouldn't get to have all the fun.
