VP7

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TrueMotion VP7 is a video codec developed by On2 Technologies as a successor to earlier efforts such as VP3, VP5 and TrueMotion VP6. It is a codec with both VFW and DirectShow support that On2 Technologies claims has better compression than leading competitive codecs such as MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) and VC-1.

In December 2005, Skype announced that they had selected the VP7 codec for point-to-point video conferencing. [1]

Move Networks is also using the VP7 codec in its Move Media Player plugin for Firefox and Internet Explorer, currently used by ABC for its streaming of full network shows. [2]
