Dolphin — maintained by ByteDance — is a project aimed at providing a high-performance, robust, and extensible media or multimedia framework / player infrastructure (or possibly a streaming media solution), intended to meet modern demands for efficiency, flexibility, and integration in media-heavy applications. It seeks to combine performant media playback or handling (audio/video decoding, streaming, buffering) with a modular, developer-friendly API that allows easy embedding into larger applications or services. Because multimedia delivery requirements vary widely (adaptive streaming, live feeds, cross-platform compatibility, custom UI, performance constraints), Dolphin aims to offer a foundation that developers can build upon or adapt to their needs. It is designed to integrate with other tools and libraries and provide stable playback or media-processing pipelines, while remaining open-source so that users can inspect, extend, and adapt it.
Features
- Multimedia framework/player infrastructure supporting audio/video playback/streaming
- Modular architecture enabling customization, extension, or embedding in larger applications
- Efficient media handling: decoding, buffering, streaming support (live or on-demand) for robust playback
- Cross-platform or cross-environment support appropriate for web and native contexts
- Developer-friendly API for integration with UI, streaming back-ends, and custom pipelines
- Open-source under ByteDance’s stewardship — accessible for inspection, modification, or extension
