The Session

Video Codec and Streaming Patent Wars: Key Cases and Developments

Between January and June 2026, over 100 litigation events touched 78 companies across the codec and streaming ecosystem — from SEP owners like InterDigital and Nokia down to device makers like Hisense and TCL. Codec and streaming patent disputes rarely make headlines individually, but viewed together, they describe a coherent, strategically waged campaign moving from licensors through platforms and into hardware.

This session is built directly on Tech+IP’s companion research report and litigation map. Tech+IP’s analysts walk through the full litigation map, unpack the forum strategy driving outcomes at the UPC, in Texas, and in Brazil, and take a close look at some of the defining cases.

Read the full report here. We recommend reviewing the map beforehand, though it isn’t required for the session.
