On2 Technologies' Flix products to offer H.264 support
On2 Technologies has announced an upgrade to its flagship Flix Engine encoding software with the addition of support for the H.264 video compression standard.
The Flix Engine line currently supports transcoding to H.263 and On2 TrueMotion VP6 compression schemes for the FLV format used by Adobe Flash Player 8 and 9, and the H.263 3GPP format used in the mobile video industry. On2 will further expand
H.264 support in its Flix product line of desktop, server and browser-based encoding solutions.
The announcement comes on the heels of On2’s pending acquisition of Hantro Products Oy, which develops a broad portfolio of standards-based video compression solutions, including H.264, H.263 and VC-1.
