Hey,
I was playing around with Jingle a bit today, and noticed some issues between
clients, so I wanted to propose an addition to XEP-0266.
Even though the spec has a few codecs listed, I think we should have a list of
priorities for the different codecs, and even a single codec that is the
minimum requirement.
Why? Because we all want Jingle to work :)
As default codec, I would like to propose Speex 8khz, as this codec is very
light, and is not patented at all, and it is supported by some mobile devices
already.
The further ranking of codecs would need to be defined (possibly Speex 16khz
one step up?).
On a semi-related matter, for the video codecs, I'd like to wait for Google I/O
and see if Google will make VP8 free, which would make an amazing codec for
video.
