Browsers have no support for Apple ProRes in their WebCodecs implementations. This extension package provides a decoder for use with [Mediabunny](https://github.com/Vanilagy/mediabunny), allowing you to decode ProRes directly in the browser at unprecedented speed. It is implemented using Mediabunny's [custom coder API](https://mediabunny.dev/guide/supported-formats-and-codecs#custom-coders) and uses [TurboRes](https://github.com/Vanilagy/turbores), an extremely fast WASM-based ProRes decoder, under the hood. > This package, like the rest of Mediabunny, is enabled by its [sponsors](https://mediabunny.dev/#sponsors) and their donations. If you've derived value from this package, please consider [leaving a donation](https://github.com/sponsors/Vanilagy)! 💘 ## Installation This library peer-depends on Mediabunny. Install both using npm: ```bash npm install mediabunny @mediabunny/prores ``` Alternatively, directly include them using a script tag: ```html ``` This will expose the global objects `Mediabunny` and `MediabunnyProres`. Use `mediabunny-prores.d.ts` to provide types for these globals. You can download the built distribution files from the [releases page](https://github.com/Vanilagy/mediabunny/releases). ## Setup `@mediabunny/prores` can make use of shared-memory multithreading to achieve maximum performance. To enable this in browsers, your website must be cross-origin isolated by setting the following response headers: ``` Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: require-corp ``` Alternatively, you can use: ``` Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: credentialless ``` which is generally more permissive but is not supported in Safari (of course). --- If you cannot enable cross-origin isolation, `@mediabunny/prores` will fall back to a slower multithreading algorithm. ## Usage ```ts import { registerProresDecoder } from '@mediabunny/prores'; registerProresDecoder(); ``` That's it - Mediabunny now uses the registered ProRes decoder automatically. For all the ways of using Mediabunny, refer to its [guide](https://mediabunny.dev/guide/introduction). ## Building and development The complete JavaScript package can be built alongside the rest of Mediabunny by running `npm run build` in Mediabunny's root.
