How VideoSDK Overrides Codecs?

What's this blog post about?

VideoSDK offers dynamic codec management capabilities for video and audio sessions, allowing developers to adapt media streams according to specific needs like network conditions, device performance, or application requirements. It provides APIs for codec selection, including support for popular codecs such as H.264, H.265 (HEVC), VP9, and AV1. The SDK enables dynamic switching of codecs during ongoing sessions without interruption, monitors network conditions to switch to more suitable codecs, and provides detailed control over codec parameters via a configuration API. It also includes fallback mechanisms for preferred codecs, negotiates codec capabilities between participants, supports low-latency codecs, and offers APIs for direct codec control.
