VP8
VP8 is a technology used to compress and encode video so it can be transmitted efficiently over the internet. Think of it like shrinking a video file without losing much quality, making it smaller for faster streaming and less storage space. It’s a free, open-source alternative to other video codecs, designed for high-quality video calls, streaming, and online video sharing. By reducing the amount of data needed, VP8 helps deliver smooth, clear videos even with slower internet connections, while maintaining good visual quality.
