- Scott M. Fulton, III
- proprietors of online videos
- stalemate
- manufacturers of Web browsers
- rights holders to the various technologies that still underlie modern video codecs
- hopes that online video services may come to adopt the codec as a de facto standard
- "While the video element and affiliated API are very useful in their own right without the formal specification including a codec requirement, Mozilla will continue to lobby for the inclusion of Ogg Theora as part of the normative part of the HTML5 specification,"
- "Theora is free and of high enough quality-per-bit for use within Web applications. It has been adopted by large-scale websites including DailyMotion.com, Wikipedia.com, and The Internet Archive (archive.org). The emergence of a common video format on the Web will allow developers to really use the power of the Video API, and it is absolutely part of Mozilla's standards advocacy to ensure a free and reliable video format becomes a part of the Web platform."
- if YouTube were to switch over to Ogg Theora, its servers would not be able to manage the bandwidth
- H.264, the family of ITU-supported standards
- includes MPEG-4
- includes many standards that require license fees

Ogg Theora, H.264 and the HTML 5 Browser Squabble
37 more annotations...
- Prince McLean
- scuffle raised by Mozilla and Opera
- roasting Apple
- HTML isn't supposed to define content codecs
- Ogg Theora, commercially abandoned nearly a decade ago, doesn't have what it takes to deliver video on the increasingly mobile web
- interoperability
- locked up in the Flash format, it couldn't be played back using alternative players
- state of the art MPEG H.264
- supporting only MPEG-4/H.264 formats at the expense of WMV, Real Video, and other proprietary formats
- toward publishing standard video formats
- push web developers back
  - forward (not back) - on 2009-11-29
  Add Sticky Note
- HTML 5 defines simple ways to embed video files
- YouTube videos as H.264 in addition to Flash binaries
- two browser companies that depend upon free distribution of their software are opposed to licensing the H.264 codec
- wanted the W3C to designate Ogg Theora as the official video codec
- originally proprietary to On2, and subsequently abandoned after it became obsolete
- Ogg Theora is based upon VP3 video technology
- Skype's proprietary video conferencing uses VP7
- Flash video is based on On2's VP6
- open source community has embraced the obsolete VP3
- avoid paying royalties
- Ogg Theora vs. H.264
- companies like Apple, Google and Nokia are already invested in H.264
- old obsolete codec
- less efficient
- lacks the hardware acceleration
- Opera and Mozilla don't make mobile hardware
- they don't care
  - debatable - on 2009-11-29
  Add Sticky Note
- All of the advanced new mobile devices use a WebKit-based browser
- Ogg Theora may be encumbered by unknown patents
- A problem that lacks any need for a solution
- the standard doesn't need to specify an official codec
- no real reason web developers need to only serve one codec
- easy in HTML 5 to offer up video as H.264, Ogg Theora, and even as a Flash binary
- non-issue
- imagined war
- deliver the best HTML 5 support

- Apple, Mozilla, Opera, Microsoft, and - yes - Google could not agree on a common set of audio or video codecs
- removed the two subsections in the HTML5 spec in which codecs would have been required
- inordinate amount of discussions
- undefined
- reluctantly
- no suitable codec that all vendors are willing to implement and ship
- Two hopes
- for Ogg Theora to improve
- for the patents held in connection with H.264 - and that the various owners refused to surrender - to expire
- for H.264 to become available without a license
- Apple refused to implement Ogg Theora in QuickTime
- Google has implemented Ogg Theora
- lack of hardware support and an uncertain patent landscape
- with H.264
- Ogg Theora's quality-per-bit is not yet suitable for the volume
