Description

The LCEVC (Low Complexity Enhancement Video Coding | MPEG-5 Part 2) is adopted by Brazilian SBTVD as a video codec to be used together with VVC|H.266 for Brazil's second-generation DTT system caled TV 3.0 (more details here: https://forumsbtvd.org.br/tv3_0/#panel-phase3). Also, "A/345:2024-10, ATSC Candidate Standard: VVC Video" (https://www.atsc.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/A345-2024-10-VVC-CS.pdf) recent released includes LCEVC.
Since lots of TV sets and set-top boxes in the Brazilian market run Android OS, I would like to request the support of LCEVC in ExoPlayer. Is it underway? Is there a roadmap?
Best regards,
Carlos Cosme.
