I DESIGNED MY OWN RIDICULOUSLY FAST GAME STREAMING VIDEO CODEC
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
PyroWave is a fast, low-latency video codec designed for local game streaming. This codec focuses on simplicity, removing motion prediction and entropy coding for speed and error resilience, using intra-only compression and discrete wavelet transforms. Benchmarks show faster encoding and decoding speeds compared to standard codecs like H.264/HEVC/AV1 under similar constrained conditions.
