Theorist have demonstrated that Gaussian encoding guarantees minimum output entropy and hence ultimate capacity of optical communication channels. Theorist have demonstrated that Gaussian encoding ...

So that’s the overview; now let’s get into customizing your presets for H.264 encoding. If you click on a preset in the Preset column of the Queue section at the top of the interface, the Export ...

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. The MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 standards are now at a relatively mature stage. At the same time, new ...

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 ...

As you would suspect, not all encoding tools address these options the same way. For example, when encoding with the Apple H.264 codec, Apple Compressor only supports the Baseline and Main Profiles, ...

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 ...

The adoption of digital video in many applications has been fuelled by the development of many video coding standards, which have emerged targeting different application areas. These standards provide ...

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 ...
