Medialooks HTML Overlay Plugin
Medialooks HTML Overlay Plugin adds Hypertext Markup Language 5 (HTML5) graphics and web content capabilities to MFormat SDK and MPlatform SDK workflows. Developers can capture webpages as video, use web technologies for character generation, display animated overlays, and place third-party website content over video streams.

HTML5 Overlay Rendering

The plugin lets applications render HTML5-based graphics over video streams. Developers can use familiar web content structures to create dynamic visual elements, including animated layouts, branded graphics, information panels, and broadcast-style on-screen presentation.

Web Content As Live Sources

Applications can use web content as a regular live source for broadcasting. This allows developers to bring webpages, browser-based interfaces, and online visual content into video workflows in a way that behaves like other live inputs.

JavaScript Graphics Control

The plugin supports JavaScript control for graphics overlays. Developers can update content, trigger animations, adjust visual behavior, and connect overlay changes to application logic using web development techniques already suited to interactive interfaces.

WebGL Overlay Support

The plugin supports Web Graphics Library (WebGL) content for 3D overlay workflows. Developers can add browser-rendered three-dimensional graphics to video applications where richer visual presentation or animated spatial elements are required.

WebCapture Engine

The built-in WebCapture engine captures webpage content as video. This lets applications incorporate browser-rendered material without relying on an additional capture device, making web-driven graphics available directly inside the media workflow.

Character Generation Workflows

Developers can use web technologies and existing HTML5 skills to build character generation features. The plugin supports graphics, animation, and layout scenarios often used for titles, lower thirds, information overlays, and live production visuals.

Third-Party Website Display

Applications can display third-party websites on top of video streams. This supports workflows that need browser-based dashboards, web pages, feeds, or visual interfaces to appear as part of the video output or production composition.

Multiple Video Layer Support

The plugin supports workflows with multiple video layers. Developers can combine video, HTML5 graphics, and web-rendered content in layered compositions, helping applications present complex visual layouts within live production and broadcast environments.

MFormats And MPlatform Integration

The plugin works with MFormats and MPlatform Software Development Kits (SDKs), where HTML5 content can be used like a webcam or capture device. This helps developers integrate browser-based graphics into existing Medialooks media pipelines.
