Except for software that runs on multiple platforms, which might not have H.264 hardware support (or might not be compatible with WebRTC even if they do exist). If you're anyone other than Safari, you have exactly zero reason to believe you'll be able to run WebRTC without a software implementation of H.264. Software encoding means royalty payments if you're a legitimate business.
- ex3ndr 6y agoI yet to see CPU without H264 built in. Even cheapest mobile CPU (more like MCU) have it. Again, no one wants software encoding. This is a thing to avoid.
