Comment on The Last MPEG-4 Visual Patent Has Expiredparent

Comments

Read the list of patents left: a lot of them are on SVC (no one uses this) and on higher profile.

For a lot of use cases, including Basic and Main profile, H.264 is already free.

Main profile is very mediocre. Any file I see in the wild is encoded in high profile.
