Position:

This talk introduces CELT, a new open source codec from Xiph.Org designed for high-quality communication with very low delay.

  • We want very high quality VoIP/videoconference/...
  • Speex doesn't reach a high enough quality level and Vorbis has too much latency.
  • For once, open-source is ahead of the proprietary codecs.

Possible contents:

  • Explaining why latency is an issue
  • How CELT works
  • API and writing for low latency
  • Comparison, samples
  • Low-delay demo (e.g. vs Skype or Ekiga)
