Multimedia in Fedora: why we can't have all the nice things?
Dominik Mierzejewski

Ever wondered why your newly installed Fedora won't let you play videos recorded with an iPhone? Annoyed with high CPU usage when playing certain videos? Join me on a journey through the history of multimedia software in Fedora and hear why some code is not (yet) allowed to be included in the official repositories. As the founder of the Multimedia SIG, I will talk about what we are doing to bring the most complete multimedia experience possible to Fedora users out of the box, the challenges we have been facing along the way and how you can help us.
