OVERVIEW

The MoQ Player project is dedicated to building an open-source video player that leverages the Media over QUIC (MoQ) protocol for low-latency streaming. Unlike traditional HLS/DASH players, this implementation focuses on delivering a more responsive viewing experience and experimenting with adaptive bitrate (ABR) logic suited for MoQ environments. By embracing fMP4 and LOC (Low Overhead Media Container) formats, the MoQ Player sets a strong foundation for next-generation streaming solutions.
