Hello,
I am a user of FFMPEG. Its a great software. It gets 10/10 from me!
Sir, as you know that libx264 is widely used and other video codecs like
mpeg2video, theora etc, are not much used today.
So, as time will go on, its likely that video codecs like VP9, HEVC, AV1,
VVC will be the video codecs of the future as the world is transferring
from resolutions like 720p and 1080p to 4K, 8K UHD resolutions and these
codecs provide significant bitrate savings over AVC.
But, when HEVC, VP9, etc codecs rule the world in future years e.g 10
years, then will the support of old video codecs at like libx264 be removed
or will FFMPEG keep supporting the video codecs at that time?
why should it?
you can still encode/decode old AVI stuff from the 1990's and H264 will
be for a very long time preferable - on a server where customers are
uploading videos which needs to be converted to something <video>
supports you need much more cpu power using x265 versus x264 and it
takes ages
ffmpeg don't implemnt all stuff itself and libraries like libx264 won't
go away - why and how should they?
