Digital video currently follows the MPEG-2 standard, but improvements in image processing technology are set to move MPEG-4 to the forefront of video compression. Millions of DVD disks, satellite ...

Coding, information theory and compression constitute the backbone of modern digital communications and data storage. Grounded in Shannon’s seminal work, information theory quantifies the ...

This article assumes a basic understanding of video compression algorithms. For an intro to video coders, see How video compression works. This article is an introduction to On2's VP6 codec, one of ...

Apple introduced Compressor 4.1 in mid-December. I just spent four days with the tool, and I can’t synthesize the results. All I can offer is a series of observations that will transfer the knowledge ...
