Add Youtube codecs in the supported codec list #209957

Dup of #167685 |
This is NOT a Dup of #167685 There you are talking about the AAC audio codec, but what about the vp9, av1, opus VIDEO codecs ? I get that you don't have a legal response for the AAC codec but the videos one are royalty free. We could at least use the video even without the sound. |
We can reopen this issue. But those codecs are also not royalty free based on our legal team. So we can not use them. Sorry. |
I don’t understand, the wiki page of these codecs says : VP9 is an open and royalty-free[1] video coding format developed by Google. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VP9 AOMedia Video 1 (AV1) is an open, royalty-free video coding format initially designed for video transmissions over the Internet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV1 Opus is a totally open, royalty-free, highly versatile audio codec. |
Sorry but for legal / fee questions I trust our legal team and not Wikipedia. |
Oh no problem, they must be more competent than my 30 sec of research for sure :) |
This is a follow up of this issue :
#158858
We are in 2024, Youtube is still present and very largely used and I would like to humbly request that the codec they use are added in the list of supported codecs.
Otherwise it is nearly impossible to use embedded Yt video files in our projects.
