theora - Feb 2005 - VFW Codec

Hi everybody,

I'm currently writing a real time video conferencing tool for Windows and I
want to use the Theora Library for this purpose.

My questions are:
1.) is there a vfw implementation of theora
2.) if no, can I bundle the VP3 vfw codec that's available from On2's
website with my application


Best regards,

Cool. What protocol?

Google turned up this link, but it seems to be a bit experimental:

In theory no. However, we have builds from the source after the license
was changed that you can use. Of course, that would be VP3 and not theora. :)

Note also that we're working on an RTP payload format for theora. You 
might be interested in reviewing/contributing/implementing if you're
working on conferencing stuff.
