[M4IF Discuss] Names / Part 10

[Gary Sullivan]

Tough question.  It has at least six names right now.
Different people have different names.  The informal name
agreed upon by both organizations in the charter of
the joint agreement is the JVT codec.  I think that
is probably the most popular name at the moment.
However, there are various people who call it H.26L,
MPEG-4 Part 10, AVC, H.264, and 14496-10.  I suppose
all those names may be correct, although they do get
confusing.
Best Regards,
Gary Sullivan
