Even in Apple's ecosystem?
- ncmncm 7y agoWikipedia says "Due to the addition of WebRTC support in Apple's WebKit rendering engine, macOS High Sierra and iOS 11 come with native playback support for Opus audio encapsulated in Core Audio Format containers." And of course VLC works on Macs and knows Opus.
- lxgr 7y agoIt depends. Opus as a codec is, but Vorbis or WebM/Matroska as containers are not. For VoIP applications, this is irrelevant, given that they often use RTP as a container for streaming and can supply their own decoding libraries for bulk files. (WebRTC on Safari also supports Opus natively). It does matter for podcast feeds and other cases where the content provider does not control the playback app.
