Self-hosted Browser Bundles
Some tools run entirely in your browser inside a Web Worker and load these libraries from our own servers rather than a third-party CDN. Each file is served with its original copyright notice and licence text intact.
| Library | Used by | License |
|---|---|---|
| mp4box.js: © 2012 Telecom ParisTech/TSI/MM/GPAC, Cyril Concolato (licence) | Video Editor, Video Compressor | BSD-3-Clause |

| pdf.js | PDF tools | Apache-2.0 |

Video encoding and decoding itself uses the browser's built-in WebCodecs API, so no codec library is bundled or redistributed by us.
