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.
Media Source Extensions (MSE) is a W3C specification that allows JavaScript to send byte streams to media codecs within web browsers that support HTML video and audio. [5] Among other possible uses, this allows the implementation of client-side prefetching and buffering code for streaming media entirely in JavaScript .
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.

Nvidia announced 3D video support for WebM through HTML5 and their Nvidia 3D Vision technology. [47] [48] [49] On January 7, 2011, Rockchip released the world's first chip to host a full hardware implementation of 1080p VP8 decoding. The video acceleration in the RK29xx chip is handled by the WebM Project's G-Series 1 hardware decoder IP. [50]
HTTP Live Streaming (also known as HLS) is an HTTP-based adaptive bitrate streaming communications protocol developed by Apple Inc. and released in 2009. Support for the protocol is widespread in media players, web browsers, mobile devices, and streaming media servers.
Adaptive streaming overview Adaptive streaming in action. Adaptive bitrate streaming is a technique used in streaming multimedia over computer networks.. While in the past most video or audio streaming technologies utilized streaming protocols such as RTP with RTSP, today's adaptive streaming technologies are based almost exclusively on HTTP, [1] and are designed to work efficiently over large ...
H.264/MPEG-4 AVC is widely used, and has good speed, compression, hardware decoders, and video quality, but is patent-encumbered. [33] Users of H.264 need licenses either from the individual patent holders, or from the MPEG LA, a group of patent holders including Microsoft and Apple, except for some Internet broadcast video uses.

- Built-in support was removed in Windows 10 version 1709 due to licensing costs. The HEVC Video Extensions add-on can be purchased from the Microsoft Store to enable HEVC playback on the default media player app Microsoft Movies & TV. [112] - Since Windows 11 version 22H2, the HEVC Video Extensions is built-in by default installation. [118]
