>Video CODECs:
>       H.261 (for compatibility with other conferencing applications)
>       H.263 (for best video quality and compression)
>And porting two Audio CODECs:
>       G.723.1 (5333 and 6400 bits/sec high-quality voice compression)
>       Lernout & Hauspie SubBand CODECs (8000, 12000, and 16000 bits/sec)
