[Linphone-developers] Difference between video profiles "MP4V-ES" and "H264"

[Andreas Pretzsch]

I'm a bit puzzled regarding the difference between the video 
codecs "MP4V-ES" and "H264".

Both peers I have in use as reference
        CounterPath EyeBeam (Windows SoftPhone)
        Grandstream GXV-3000
support H.264 in different flavours, while linphone supports MP4V-ES.

To my current understanding, H.264 and MPEG4 AVC baseline profile are 
comparable to a large extent.

During negotiation, video codec selection fails because of
MP4V-ES != H264.
The question is, is it just a matter of naming or do I have to dig 
deeper into this ?
