Why Opus is Important

Here's a secret: We're currently working on integrating the Opus codec into ACCESS and STAC-VIP. Why?

Not because Opus sounds better or is easier to use, but in fact it sounds almost as good at the AAC family of algorithms, and it's not encumbered by expensive patent licenses.

We're integrating Opus to ACCESS because it's the key to mobile app support. Many new Android and iOS softphones support it, including a particularly new one I'll be blogging about soon.

For STAC-VIP, Opus compatibility opens up huge possibilities in creating phone/web integration. If you're viewing this blog with a Chrome or Firefox browser, you actually have an Opus audio codec embedded in there, and it just takes a few more pieces in the chain to link it all together.

That's pretty exciting stuff and we'll be focusing on it a lot as we run up to our yearly big event, NAB. Watch this space for more as news develops!
