What's the story with AV1 based image format to replace JPEG? Also, is HEIF royalty free? Looks like AVIF is using it for container, which is surprising.

- greggman2 7y agoLooks like HEIF is not royalty free?? But it's already supported in Chrome and Safari but not Firefox https://tests.caniuse.com/?feat=heif https://tests.caniuse.com/?feat=heif https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=HEIF https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=HEIF
- iskin 7y agoHEIF container is just ISOBMFF container, so it should be royalty-free. HEIF has problems because of HEVC encoder, which was replaced in AVIF.
