High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! VP8 is the latest video codec from On2 Technologies meant to replace its predecessor VP7. It was announced on September 13, 2008.On April 12, 2010, news sources published an unconfirmed rumor that Google, which acquired On2 in 2010, would release VP8 as an open-source codec at its May 2010 Google I/O conference. Such an action would make VP8 the second product from On2 Technologies to be open-sourced to the free software community following the 2002 release of the older VP3 codec (under the BSD) to the Xiph.Org Foundation as the Theora codec; the most vocal urging for Google to release the VP8 source code comes from the Free Software Foundation, which issued a March 12, 2010, open letter requesting Google to gradually replace the usage of the Adobe Flash Player and H.264 on YouTube with a mixture of HTML5 and an open-sourced VP8.
