Google VP8 video codec now included in App

This is an important development in our iPhone & ipad App. Mark indicated yesterday that Google has very recently made available their video codec VP8 which in all likely hood will be the new standard in browser based real time communications, known as WebRTC which is underway and will be adopted later this year.j

Mark is all over this and sees the future for video communication built into the browser and says we are a leader in the space, we shall see. Apparently he wanted the current version of the iPhone & ipad app to have the VP8 codec so it may have taken a few weeks longer but it will be here soon IMO.

"We have also taken the time to ensure the anticipated iPhone App is accepted in its first submission to the Apple Store. The voice quality of our iPhone App has exceeded our expectation and we have now included enhanced voice and video codec support, after noting the recent successful initiative by Google to make available their VP8 video codec. The envisioned video ecosystem of Android, iPhone, and video phones joining a video centric world built around WebRTC has taken a step forward."
