Video Compression for the Web: The Middle-Out Approach
Dinesh Chugtai // Pied Piper
Modern video compression on the web is stuck between bloated codecs and unacceptable quality tradeoffs. Dinesh presents Pied Piper's middle-out compression approach adapted for browser-based video delivery — achieving dramatically better compression ratios without sacrificing visual fidelity. He covers the WebCodecs API, adaptive bitrate strategies, and the real-world performance gains from rethinking how video data flows from server to screen.
