The default codec is h264 for compatibility with the widest range of devices. Changing it is at your own risk as not all your devices might support the new codec.

@alextran1502 @jrasm91 thoughts on adding a warning like this to the settings page?

I think a warning or even just a link to the documentation site where we have more information about the feature and pros/cons of different options would possibly be even better.

iOS still does not support vp9? o.O
Well, than I think this can be closed. Some hints on the webpage would be nice though.

I still have the same issue.
Does anyone know if iOS is supposed to support VP9 ?
If not, could be great to indicate it in the docs :)
Thanks :)
