Codec Choice

H.264 is the superior codec for streaming typical video over a constrained bitrate, however the denoising filters in VP6 can produce a better effective quality when streaming noisy analogue video.

AAC is the superior audio codec, however FMLE doesn't offer it as an option in all configurations.
