Hi I came across this Wowza streaming WebM demo a few months ago: [https://www.wowza.com/\_demo/webm/html5.html](https://www.wowza.com/_demo/webm/html5.html) I was under the impression that this would be part of Wowza 3, but I don’t see it on the feature list. Is WebM Streaming still coming to Wowza? If so is there any idea of when we could expect this feature? Thanks, Paul ---

No, it has not been released. We are still considering when we will officially add support for webm. Charlie ---

It is still a future feature, probably, but no timeframe. It has not been a supported feature in the past, so it wasn’t dropped. Richard ---

Richard, Six months have passed. According to [http://technews.tmcnet.com/channels/ip-media-server/articles/137030-wowza-media-server-wows-em.htm](http://technews.tmcnet.com/channels/ip-media-server/articles/137030-wowza-media-server-wows-em.htm) you have WebM support lying around. Why don’t you release it? Thanks, Gili ---

Hi guys, It looks like this feature has been dropped, is this because it does not work as well as rtmp over flash? Or that browsers don’t handle it well? ---

Hi Guys, I searched in Wowza Docs but couldn’t find support to WebM. There’s an increasing need to stream to HTML5 players and it must be compatible with all browsers, without plugins. Dash seems to be a great solution to this problem, Chrome and Internet Explorer executes HTML5 players and Dash without problems, but Opera and Firefox just accepts WebM and not MP4, as far as I know. Is there a timeframe on Wowza’s side to support WebM? Or, without Flash and Silverlight Fallback, do we have another alternative? ---

Erik, take a look at this guide. This functionality is still in "preview’ status: [How to transcode live streams using WebM](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-transcode-live-streams-to-webm-for-mpeg-dash-playback) I hope this answers your question. Regards, Salvadore ---

We are now at version 4.3, no mentioning of WebM, when can we expect it? There is more and more demand for HTML5 players. Kind regards, Erik [Next page](https://community.wowza.com/t/webm-streaming/37696.md?page=2)
