Maik said: > Cisco's offer, while certainly useful in some (or even many) application > contexts, cannot cover all relevant deployment scenarios. [BA] I'd note that the current IETF discussion of MTI video codecs is somewhat similar to a previous discussion in W3C relating to the MTI codec for streaming video. In that previous discussion, advocates of the potential MTI codecs offered to implement their preferred codec for other browsers. So if past is prologue, other offers may emerge over time. > Without a fallback codec there will be negotiation failure in ways that are out of control of the affected users. [BA] In practice, negotiation failure is annoying enough that customers and users are going to demand that it be addressed in some fashion. This could be via native implementation of multiple codecs, via codec plugins as Cisco has proposed, or via on-premise or cloud-based transcoding solutions as Justin has described. Given the penalties that the marketplace will impose on services that don't address interoperability in some fashion, it seems to me that the issue is very likely to be addressed in practice, at least for commercial services. On the other hand, attempting to impose a solution that has no real consensus could do real damage, by diverting resources away from implementing leading edge codecs (e.g. VP9 and HEVC) or polishing the WebRTC protocol specifications so as to fully enable multi-codec support, which is going to necessary whichever camp you're in.
