OpenPackage Video now supports H.264 video

OpenPackage Video 5.x-3.15 has been released.

The major new feature of this release is MP4 encoding with H.264 video and AAC audio. These codecs have much higher performance than than the old FLV and MP3. This means you can have the same quality for less bandwidth or higher quality for the same bandwidth.
