Clarification from the comments:
"Perhaps I should wait until there’s more info on this announcement, but I just wanted to clarify: the key couldn’t-be-done-before technology here is the HD codec running in Javascript. The remote desktop technology is nice and cool and everything, but a completely separate thing that just happens to be possible because of the codec."
Frankly, 25% better compression than h.264 for the same content and signal to noise ratio would be such a newsworthy accomplishment that I am very skeptical... doubly so because that's not described as the innovation, but the fact that it runs on Javascript and WebGL is supposedly the strong point.
- eikenberry 14y agoh.265 claims double the compression. So 25% is pretty modest in comparison.
- ZeroGravitas 14y agoThat's a question, not a clarification you quote, they forgot a ? which makes it ambiguous. Like that questioner I think we're all keen to have the actual information distilled out from the marketing BS so we can figure out what the hell they are even claiming to have built.
