Rogue reverse-engineered codecs are not exactly the measure of keeping
up with advances in software and hardware. Not many visitors of this
server are as advanced as Warp is in this field (and then, they are
mostly POV-Team members :) ).

The user side of it is not the cutting edge either. After all,
developers always get to use the newest versions before the users.
Being a programmer makes up for staying on the crest of the wave.
