VP9

VP9 is a video compression technology developed by Google that reduces the size of video files while maintaining high quality. It works by efficiently removing redundant data, allowing videos to stream smoothly over the internet without needing as much bandwidth. This makes videos load faster and consume less data, which is especially helpful for streaming services like YouTube. VP9 is an open standard, meaning it's free to use and supports high-resolution formats like 4K. Its goal is to deliver clear, sharp videos at lower file sizes, enhancing viewing experiences across devices and network conditions.
