v264 video format
The adoption of v264 format for saving videos is a strange product management decision and makes difficult to publish demo videos taken with the IPRobot3 the traditional way (YouTube, DailyMotion, ...).
v264 is different from the h264 format and no tool known to man (VLC, MPC, Quicktime, ...) can play it except the V264Player.exe provided by Tenvis.
Since that viewer is a Windows program, v264 files cannot be viewed on any other platform.
Capture tools like Fraps or Ultra VNC Screen Recorder could be used but the result won't be exactly the same as the original.
IP Robot 3 is build around a GM8126 SoC which natively supports MPEG4 encoding so I hope that Tenvis will be able to implement such video format.
The demo file:

This Windows program is needed to view the videos.
