[Freeswitch-dev] FSComm video support

      Why not build it on top of ffmpeg (like linphone or ekiga) and 
take advantage of the codecs it already supports?
They have a FAQ about patents: http://ffmpeg.org/legal.html

     I'm just asking because video transcoding is expensive and, 
unfortunately, H.26x are the standard codecs for the video industry.

     Regards,

     Paulo R. Panhoto.
