When will Sup Forums support VP9?

When will Sup Forums support VP9?

Never I expect, AV1 if anything will likely be the next supported simply because it looks to be the up coming defacto internet codec.

It wouldn't cost to implement VP9 until then and receive all the benefits of saved bandwith.

What anime is that from?

You will be the last person to buy a Chrysler.

Just FYI, Futaba already has it.

So does kraut chan

Krautchan supports multiple audio tracks too though because of feature poor design of browsers those tracks don't show up in the inbuilt players.

So does (4x2)chan. With audio... and H.264 + AAC + MP3.

Never, what makes you think webm's will ever change even a tiny bit when major complains are still ignored?
>webm's are still stuck to 3mb's despite everything else site wide being 4
>no sound despite the whole "everyone would spam screamers" meme died when sound was introduced in /gif/ and /wsg/

It's not gonna save bandwidth.
People will just encode longer, more detailed webms, rustling copyright holder jimmies harder.

/wsg/ and /gif/ also get a 4MB size limit for webms

Of course it will because it would be sensible to cut the upload limit up to a half as a second step considering same quality could be achieved at smaller size.

I'm talking about global limit, not board specific

That deprecates probably a majority of webms made.
People are lazy. Instead of re-encoding people would just stop posting them.

Why not just have vp8 legacy support as well?

So encoding in VP9 becomes a polite gesture the user can take to lower the site's operating costs with no incentives to himself?

With a time given before VP8 is phased out.

People are not gonna be less lazy given more time, but that would help somewhat I guess.

That would require Hiro to do something that isn't a half baked get quick rich scheme.

If webm for retards defaults to vp9 then most people will switch without realising

And VP9 encoding is a more CPU intensive task, so why would they switch?

Its not massively different

1mb extra for audio
