Open Video Infrastructure for Democratizing Media: Miro and our Social Programs
Infrastructure Project

As TV becomes online video, there is an opportunity to put control in the hands of the creators.  The large media companies are trying to repeat massive centralization with gatekeepers.  We make democratic media infrastructure called Miro, an open source HD video player, with over 7 million downloads globally.

With this new phase of our project, we want to directly address the needs of communities in developing countries by making video sharable in low bandwidth conditions, rich with subtitles, and synchronized with any low cost mobile device.
