From what I've read, not even XR baseline profile is guaranteed to be free from royalties (!), it's clear to me that the jpeg committee has lost any relevance, attempting to introduce a patent-burdened image codec today when even video is going towards royalty free is just insane. Quote:

Of course, AV1 itself also needs to survive what I expect to be a massive patent aggression from the MPEG LA group, they won't give up their patent cash cow business model of : 'pick a bunch of patents from the pool, implement a slight improvement on the current video codec standard, charge royalties, rinse and repeat' : without a fight. That said, with the companies behind AOM, I think we have the best chance ever of seeing royalty laden video codecs be history. |
