It is widely adopted by streaming leaders like Netflix and YouTube, notably for its compression performance and its ability to deliver sharp images even under limited network conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Until now, Linphone already supported efficient video codecs such as VP8, H.264, and H.265, providing an excellent balance between visual quality and resource consumption.
