Lyra V2 – a better, faster, and more versatile speech codec
Is there an open codec that concentrates on low CPU usage? I'm fine with it not being very bandwidth efficient.<p>Opus is a very good codec, but it's not amazing CPU-wise. I work on a VR world, and audio encoding is usually our most limiting factor when running on an VPS. We have the capability to negotiate codecs, so the high cpu/low bandwidth use case is already covered.<p>What I'm looking for specifically:<p>* Low CPU usage<p>* Support for high bitrate, suitable for music and sounds other than voice<p>* Low latency
