OpenTok Version 2.16: What’s New and How You Can Use It

The latest version of OpenTok, v2.16, has been released to coincide with Safari version 12.1, bringing several new features including support for VP8 Video Codec on iOS and macOS, enabling full interoperability between all browsers and old Android devices that do not support H.264 encoding. Additionally, experimental screen sharing support has been added, as well as scalable video support through simulcast technology, which helps to improve video quality by adapting to the network or processing capacity of each subscriber. The release also includes Unity samples for integrating OpenTok with Unity3d on various platforms in beta.
