Key Features:
-
Media over QUIC (MoQ) Support: Publish and consume media streams using the emerging MoQ standard over QUIC.
-
Low-Latency Streaming: Designed for real-time monitoring, live broadcasting, robotics, and interactive applications.
-
Publisher and Subscriber Architecture: Supports both media publishing and media consumption workflows.
-
Multi-Stream Support: Transport audio and video as independent tracks, helping prevent one stream from blocking another.
-
Browser-Ready Streaming: Deliver media to GStreamer applications or compatible web-based playback workflows.
-
Network Resilience: Takes advantage of QUIC connection migration and reconnection capabilities for changing or unreliable networks.
-
Native GStreamer Integration: Reuse existing cameras, files, encoders, processing elements, logging, and pipeline infrastructure.
GstMoQ Plugin Elements:
-
rrmoqsink: Publishes encoded audio and video from a GStreamer pipeline to a MoQ relay.
-
rrmoqsrc: Subscribes to media tracks from a MoQ relay and exposes them directly into a GStreamer pipeline.
-
rrmoqbin: Simplifies multi-track streaming by managing channels, tracks, relay processes, and web streaming workflows.
Supported Media Types:
-
Video: H.264
-
Audio: AAC
-
Fragmented media: ISO fragmented QuickTime/MP4 streams
Example Use Case:
An edge AI system captures and processes video from multiple cameras. Using GstMoQ, the system can publish compressed video and related media tracks to a MoQ relay, where multiple subscribers can consume the content through GStreamer or browser-based applications with low latency.
This enables scalable real-time monitoring and media distribution between edge, cloud, and web clients without requiring complex WebRTC signaling infrastructure.
Use Cases:
-
Edge AI video streaming
-
Robotics and teleoperation
-
Low-latency live broadcasting
-
Camera-to-cloud streaming
-
Real-time analytics
-
Distributed edge and cloud processing
-
One-to-many media distribution
Supported Platforms:
-
x86 Linux systems
-
NVIDIA Jetson platforms
-
Compatible embedded Linux platforms running GStreamer and QUIC networking

"As a side note: just to let you know, I'm really happy to be working with RidgeRun in general. It's pretty clear that you tell it like you see it, and know what you do and don't know; it's really refreshing. That's super rare on these kinds of technical engagements when everyone seems to either want to claim expertise they don't have, or are so cautious they are don't actually say anything useful"

"RidgeRun has been so good that part of me doesn't even want to write this testimonial—because if more companies discover them, I might have to share the amazing engineers I get to work with. But credit where credit's due: their team is sharp, responsive, and consistently delivers beyond expectations. They make tough technical challenges feel easy, and that's rare."
