Aren't Vp8/9/av1 all open codecs tho? I don't really see what the issue is. Vp8 seems to be the most supported on all platforms without melting your intel CPU.

Aren't Vp8/9/av1 all open codecs tho? I don't really see what the issue is. Vp8 seems to be the most supported on all platforms without melting your intel CPU. At least from when I was deploying a webRTC solution to a larger customer base last year. > In May 2010, after the purchase of On2 Technologies, Google provided an irrevocable patent promise on its patents for implementing the VP8 format This is significantly better than even h264 in terms of patents/royalties. Would you mind elaborating on your hate? There's nothing for google to abandon here? It's already out in the wild.
