Windows 8 embed able library with full mkv support #545

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Given the webm is built on a simplified version of mkv and the high demand for 
mkv support in windows 8 apps it would be highly beneficial to port the media 
foundation codecs and splitters to work as embeddable modules in windows 8 apps 
and at the same time enable mkv splitting.  

By doing so, you'll get a lot of support from the developer community and get 
companies to use webm because its easy and efficient to use royalty free in 
windows 8.

There are existing open source tools that work with MKV. If you have any issues 
with those please reopen the bug.

You didn't answer the suggestion at all.  You guys need to provide windows 8 
media foundation splitters and decoders so that modern apps can play webm and 
by extension mkv.

otherwise you're locked to just the desktop browser in windows 8 which is a 
good way to ensure no adoption.
