I agree with you. When I was having issues no one would listen to me either and mainly complained that it was something to do with the server rather then the codec. However frankly it is the codec and I had much better performance with the old one, except the quality.
If there is a way, I would love to have a cvar to change my tf2 servers from the current codec to CELT to at least try it out.
