And about the WebM name, I suggest it to be changed as soon as possible. I mean, if I found about a program named WebM and was asked to categorize it, I'd place it in Internet instead of Multimedia. It also breaks the open-source tradition of naming codecs after people (Theora, Vorbis, Dirac). I'd suggest a few names, like Lumiere (from the brothers that invented some of the first cinematographers) or Gideon (a pun on Google Video). Since WebM's format is based on Matroska, I'd go as far as renaming the files as .mkv manually before having to use this name. Who in the whole world thought it could be a good name for a CODEC?
And speaking of Matroska, is it right that WebM only supports a subset of it? I would like to embed subtitles and extra audio tracks in a WebM/Matroska file, or splitting it in chapters like a DVD. Both tasks can be done in a Matroska file, can they be done in a WebM file?
while VP8 use block local adaptibility (brand segement and local
complexity),and choose level==4 as critical value for directly token
encoding ,the designer should
do many statistics analysis for level distribution and choose the
threshold
In my opinion,we can't verdict h264 is efficient than vp8 in the
coefficient encoding part .
there need some test to verify
