Lib-Ray video standard: using Google/On2’s VP8 video codec

“When I started working on a no-DRM, open-standards-based solution for distributing high-definition video on fixed media (‘Lib-Ray’), I naturally thought of Theora, because it was developed as a free software project. Several people have suggested, though, that the VP8 codec would be a better fit for my application. This month, I’ve finally gotten the necessary vpxtools and mkvtoolnix packages installed on my Debian system, and so I’m having a first-look at VP8. The results are very promising, though the tools are somewhat finicky.”
