>From what I could see, a mod_vp8 would be cool because its license is BSD-like and not like h264 and others that have patent restricting use.

The problem is that, afaik there is no endpoints using vp8 nowadays so it would be restricted to some internet application or custom application making use of vp8...

Maybe the experts could shed some light on the matter, I don't even know if VP8 would be suitable for phone calls...

All video codecs is passthrough currently in FS, so it doesn't matter of performance in FS even it might matter in other parts of BBB.

I guess you could easily write a passthrough module for VP8 just like mod_h26x.

Hello folks from FreeSWITCH,

i am using FreeSWITCH with the conference system BigBlueButton, made by
people from canada.

It works pretty fine, so far. Due to the need that we would like to
support more than 500 users in a single video/audio session, we are in
interest to use the best codecs.

So i listen to VP8 from Google. Does FreeSWITCH support it anyway? I
couldn't find something in the FAQ's. I listen something about ffmeg, is
it in this abstraction module?

Thanks for a short reply and thanks for the good work!

Kind regards,

Markus
