'''TrueMotion VP7''' is a [[video codec]] developed by [[On2 Technologies]] as a successor to earlier efforts such as [[VP3]], [[VP5]] and [[VP6|TrueMotion VP6]]. It is a codec with both [[Video for Windows|VFW]] and [[DirectShow]] support that On2 Technologies claims has better compression than leading competitive codecs such as [[MPEG-4 AVC]] (H.264) and [[VC-1]].{{Fact|date=January 2009}} However, the objective measurements used by On2 Technologies do not correlate perfectly with subjective quality measurements.
