Source code

Daala is the codename for a new video compression technology. The effort is a collaboration between the Mozilla Foundation, the Xiph.Org Foundation and any other contributors that wish to help. The goal of the project is to provide a video format that's free to implement, use and distribute, and a reference implementation with technical performance superior to H.265. For more information, see the [Daala wiki][wiki]. The wiki has quickstart pages for [Linux/OS X][posix], [Windows][win], and [Windows MinGW64][mingw]. Daala uses the [GitHub Issue Tracker][issues] and the [Rietveld][code review] code review tool. [Jenkins][jenkins] is used for continuous integration. There's an IRC channel daala on chat.freenode.org. If you don't have IRC set up you can easily connect from your [web browser][webchat].
