Need VP8 Codec on iOS #199

Closed redccoma closed 3 years ago

redccoma commented 5 years ago

Is the feature request related to the issue? explain it to me please. We need an implementation of webm on iOS.

Description of Alternative Considered To use webm (vp8) on iOS, Unity VideoPlayer and RenderTexture provided by Unity, but performance is poor.

TravisC1 commented 4 years ago

I'm also interested in webm support on iOS devices. Is this something that might ever be supported by AVPro? Or is it an Apple/iOS issue to solve?

AndrewRH commented 4 years ago

Can I ask why the interest in webm/vp8/vp9?

TravisC1 commented 4 years ago

@AndrewRH I'm mostly interested in it for the alpha channel support. Though I've just discovered that Safari on iOS doesn't support them either and I need a solution that works across Unity iOS/Android and the web so maybe this isn't actually going to be something we can use even if put in place. Transparent video is such a pain.

AndrewRH commented 4 years ago

I see! Yes, transparency is something that isn't widely supported in codecs. The best option for comparability is to use alpha packing. This should be supported on all platforms.

Unless Apple provide hardware support for decoding in the future we will not be providing support for the VP8 codec.
