Neuer offener Video-Codec in Sicht.

Es ist immer wahrscheinlicher, dass es endlich einen Codec geben wird, den alle Browser unterstützten und auch noch Patentfrei ist.

IETF standardizes the Opus audio codec as RFC 6716 - Opus reference implementation 1.0.1 released

Opus was developed and tested in a public, fully transparent process within the IETF, proof that open collaboration can produce a better audio codec than proprietary, secretive, patent-encumbered systems. Open standards benefit– and benefit from– open source organizations and traditional commercial software companies alike. Opus itself is the result of a collaboration including Broadcom, Google, the IETF, Microsoft (through Skype), Mozilla, Octasic and Xiph.Org.
