The quality the codec can achieve is heavily based on the compression format the codec uses. A codec is not a format, and there may be multiple codecs that implement the same compression specification – for example, MPEG-1 codecs typically do not achieve quality/size ratio comparable to codecs that implement the more modern H.264 specification.
They may recompress the video to another format in a process called transcoding, or may simply change the container format without changing the video format. The disadvantages of transcoding are that there is quality loss when transcoding between lossy compression formats, and that the process is highly CPU -intensive.
VP8 is a traditional block-based transform coding format. It has much in common with H.264, e.g. some prediction modes. [8] At the time of first presentation of VP8, according to On2 the in-loop filter [9] and the Golden Frames [10] were among the novelties of this iteration.
In a subjective quality comparison conducted in 2014 featuring the reference encoders for HEVC (HM 15.0), MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 (JM 18.6), and VP9 (libvpx 1.2.0 with preliminary VP9 support), VP9, like H.264, required about two times the bitrate to reach video quality comparable to HEVC, while with synthetic imagery VP9 was close to HEVC.

Coding efficiency is the ability to encode video at the lowest possible bit rate while maintaining a certain level of video quality. There are two standard ways to measure the coding efficiency of a video coding standard, which are to use an objective metric, such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), or to use subjective assessment of video ...
Theora's predecessor On2 TrueMotion VP3 was originally a proprietary and patent-encumbered video codec developed by On2 Technologies.VP3.1 was introduced in May 2000 [14] and followed three months later by the VP3.2 release, [15] which was the basis for Theora.
