Martin -- We are ok to have VP8 in addition to H.264 which is what option 3 is, but are not supportive of eliminating H.264 as a MTI which is a possible outcome of choices under option 10. H.261 is not a reasonable alternative to H.264; it is an inherently low resolution (CIF) and used for video conferencing over the ISDN lines and is a big step backwards.  


Thanks
Sanjay

Hello Sanjay, others,

I have a clarifying question below.

Given that you are in favor of 3, and surprised at the NO here, and even more surprised at your justification. What's the problem if, under this option, some entities (not you) decide to implement VP8 and H.261, and communicate among themselves using either of these two?

It looks to me like there's either a fundamental issue for you that nobody else has mentioned yet, or there is a misunderstanding, and it would be great if you could clarify.

Regards,   Martin.
