> MPEG (like it or not, MPEG represents the industry) Not so much anymore. The licensing fiasco with HEVC has reduced MPEG's relevance, particularly for web video. Here's what Leonardo Chiariglione, founder and chairman of MPEG, says about it: https://blog.chiariglione.org/a-crisis-the-causes-and-a-solution/ https://blog.chiariglione.org/a-crisis-the-causes-and-a-solu... https://blog.chiariglione.org/stop-here-if-you-to-know-about-mpeg-%e2%80%a0/ https://blog.chiariglione.org/stop-here-if-you-to-know-about... And they're shaping up to make VVC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versatile_Video_Coding https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versatile_Video_Coding) licensing just as bad. Leonardo says there is no longer a united MPEG: https://blog.chiariglione.org/a-future-without-mpeg/ https://blog.chiariglione.org/a-future-without-mpeg/ Why would anyone waste their time on a format with complex and uncertain licensing when they can just implement AV1 with its simple, royalty-free licensing?
