One question might concern the value in standardizing a shell API for proprietary codecs. If there are no freely implementable solutions, maybe the spec should drop it. Personally, I think it would be pretty offensive to ship an H.264 playing application and call it "standards-based" or some nonsense like that. I understand that the WG is a poor place to settle legal issues with codecs. However, it's pretty poor form to endlessly handwave objections while leaving the API in the document, as if there were no target codecs. -- Robert Sayre "I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time."
