For the fourth GStreamer Conference we're back in Europe. This year we will be co-hosting with the Embedded Linux Conference Europe, LinuxCon Europe, the Automotive Linux Summit and the Linux Kernel Summit. The event will be held at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC) in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Details

The GStreamer Conference is a conference for developers, decision-makers, and anyone else interested in the GStreamer multimedia framework and open source multimedia.

This year we will provide more time and opportunity for networking and socialising.

Whether you are a hobbyist or a student interested in the field of multimedia, or working for a company using or looking to use GStreamer in their products, this is the perfect event for you to network at and to learn more about the latest technological breakthroughs in and around GStreamer. The talks will target both developers and managers alike.

For those uncertain about whether to register as a professional or hobbyist, the general rule is that if your company pays for you or sponsors you, you are a professional, and if you personally pay you are a student or hobbyist.

Sponsors will receive a number of free registrations as part of the sponsorship package.
