This means that you can be assured your customers will be able to receive your media streams without having to download extra software to do so.

Fluendo supports the development of the GStreamer multimedia framework, which is emerging as the standard media framework on Unix and Linux platforms.

This makes Fluendo your natural choice as a development partner, whether you deploy your solutions on high-end servers, personal computers, or embedded systems.

You can now download the first release of the free version of the Flumotion Streaming Server. This release gives users access to the basic features of the server and demonstrates its distributed capabilities. They will follow up with a release within a couple of weeks to address some of the remaining issues and fix items that our users discover.
