VoN Codec?

[basedalex]

I was looking at the 1.58 Update changelog when I happened across this:

" Added: A new VoN Codec implementation based on Opus (can be enabled by setting vonCodec = 1; in the server.cfg) "

Does this improve the VoN communications in-game (i.e. will it make the sound quality better in direct) and if so, is it currently enabled on the servers?

Thanks

@Ciaran.... well say goodbye to directional voice if we enable it.

@Wilco or @Ciaranis it possible to get a dummy's explanation of what this means?

Is it  bad in comparesing to the other  audio codec?
