Is there a > way you can verify that they do in fact meet this requirement? > The rule I've been told is 20 years rather than 25 years, since the former is the length of time of a patent. That being said, the whitepaper published by MPEG about the new codec explicitly notes this: > The Baseline profile contains technologies assessed to be over 20 years to maximally approach to a royalty free codec. > The Baseline profile builds a video codec using only conventional coding technologies which consist of traditional methods > from the early 1980s to the end of the 1990s.
