Open H.264 ensures compatibility between a wide range of video conferencing endpoints. TrueConf has supported Open H.264 codec in TrueConf Server version 4.3.9.<\/p>\n<p>The codec maintains excellent video quality at a high compression rate without additional hardware requirements. Thanks to Open H.264 support, TrueConf optimized its multi-protocol gateway performance. In addition, with new codec you can run WebRTC-based web conferences across mobile devices and legacy video conferencing endpoints without the need for transcoding.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are happy that H.264 codec licensing problem has been solved. This is a very important step for the industry, as video conferencing companies are now able to use H.264 implementation at no charge,\u201d <b>Dmitry Odintsov<\/b>, TrueConf CBDO, says. \u201cWith Open H.264 supported by different vendors, a completely new level of video conferencing compatibility can be achieved\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><b>For more information, please contact:<\/b><br \/>\nDmitry Odintsov,<br \/>\nTrueConf Chief Business Development Officer<br \/>\nPhone: 1.347.878.3263<br \/>\nE-mail: <a href=\"mailto:dmitry@trueconf.com\">dmitry@trueconf.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>About TrueConf, <a href=\"https:\/\/trueconf.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.trueconf.com<\/a><\/b><br \/>\nTrueConf equips desktops, mobiles and meeting rooms with high quality video conferencing and collaboration capabilities.
