Hi there, COO here. I wrote a good response on this when we were branded as Kickfolio: http://www.quora.com/How-Does-X-Work/How-does-Kickfolio-work-in-simulating-iOS-apps http://www.quora.com/How-Does-X-Work/How-does-Kickfolio-work.... You're quite right - we stream diff'd GIFs and JPEGs at different times. We did originally try encoding with FFMPEG and other technologies, but surprisingly this works best!

- phoboslab 13y agoWhile your implementation seems to be quite ingenious, the answer on Quora doesn't explain anything besides "sending frames" and "magic happens". I would have liked to see a more in-depth explanation, but I understand if you don't want to share it at this point.
- chrisnolet 13y ago;) Quite right - we have two patent applications in the works! So unfortunately I can't provide a whole lot more detail at this point. Feel free to email me though if you're interested to chat offline. Great job with JSMPEG by the way.
