And again, we did a demo at the CES of VLC running the first demo of AV2.
So can you clarify to me the specification?
Sure, so the specification is like the document to explain how the Kodak is supposed to work, right?
And that's really AV2.
That is AV2, like H.264, right?
Then you have an encoder.
The current encoder is called AVM, and there will probably be other encoders, probably one called SVT-AV2, and those are the encoder.
The same way X264 is an encoder to H264.
The same way that X265 is an encoder for the H265 codec.
And the decoders for AV1 is David.
The decoder for AV2 is David2.
The decoder for H.264 is FF-H.264 inside FFmpeg.
The decoder for HEVC is FF-HEVC inside FFmpeg.
And there is a next-generation codec from the MPEG world after H.264, H.265.
There is one that is called H.266, also known as VVC.
So the question often we have is why are they two names?
Because most of the time it is a conjunct work from the ISO world and the ITU, which is the International Telecommunication Union.
Which one is the private?
ISO is private.
In theory, H.264 is MPEG-4 Part 10 H.264 slash AVC.
