Introducing MOQ5: Open-Source C Library with MOQ Support for Both Ingest and Egress

MOQ5 is an open-source native C library designed by Red5 to facilitate the development of live streaming workflows using Media over QUIC Transport (MOQT). It offers a reusable and transport-independent protocol foundation that supports both sending and receiving media, enabling developers to integrate MOQT into various applications, infrastructures, and runtime environments without being tied to a specific networking stack. As a sans-I/O MOQT protocol engine, MOQ5 efficiently handles session state, message encoding, subscription management, and protocol negotiation independently of sockets and event loops, allowing easy embedding and interoperability testing across different products. The library includes transport adapters and a higher-level media service tier, making it practical for building real media workflows beyond raw protocol primitives, and is already being utilized within Red5's projects and by members of the OpenMOQ Software Consortium, including Qualabs, YouTube, and Bitmovin. As the ecosystem evolves, the success of MOQ5 will be determined by the real-world applications and infrastructures built upon it, offering developers an opportunity to contribute and innovate within the growing interoperable MOQ framework.
