Standards

Our media tools implement published specifications, including ISO/IEC 14496-12 and 14496-15 (the MP4 file format family) and ITU-T H.264 and H.265 (video coding). We credit the standards bodies and the many engineers who wrote them. Merkava's code for these formats is our own and does not include third-party codec software.

The licensing terms of the codecs we implement are respected, and where a licence applies it is obtained and its cost is part of our plans.

Trademarks

All other names and marks belong to their owners.
