DirecTV-10

DirecTV-10 transmits MPEG-4 encoded signals, a compression standard which is more efficient than MPEG-2 which DirecTV uses for standard definition and a small number of HD channels.

DirecTV-11

Those first channels were MPEG-4 counterparts of the older MPEG-2 channels DirecTV originally carried in the 70-79 channel range as well as four east coast distant network channels.

Elementary stream

The digitized sound signal is divided up into blocks of 384 samples in Layer I and 1152 samples in Layers II and III.

H.264/MPEG-4 AVC

This design is conceptually similar to that of the well-known discrete cosine transform (DCT), introduced in 1974 by N. Ahmed, T.Natarajan and K.R.Rao, which is Citation 1 in Discrete cosine transform.

IPMP

MPEG-1

Decoding MP2 audio is computationally simple, relative to MP3, AAC, etc.

--at ???--> Optimum Coding in the Frequency domain (OCF) the doctoral thesis by Karlheinz Brandenburg at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Perceptual Transform Coding (PXFM) by J. D. Johnston at AT&T Bell Labs, and Transform coding of audio signals by Y. Mahieux and J. Petit at Institut für Rundfunktechnik (IRT/CNET).

MPEG-2 Part 3

MPEG Multichannel - It enhances MPEG-1's audio by allowing the coding of audio programs with more than two channels, up to 5.1 multichannel.

MPEG-2 transport stream

.m2ts, a filename extension used for the BDAV MPEG-2 Transport Stream, defined by Blu-ray Disc Association

MPEG-4 SLS

MPEG-4 SLS allows for having both a lossy layer and a lossless correction layer similar to Wavpack Hybrid, OptimFROG DualStream and DTS-HD Master Audio, allowing for backwards compatibility to MPEG AAC-compliant bitstreams.

MPEG-4 Structured Audio

It allows the transmission of synthetic music and sound effects at very low bit rates (from 0.01 to 10 kbit/s), and the description of parametric sound post-production for mixing multiple streams and adding effects to audio scenes.

Octatron SkySeer

The ground station's recorder can store up to twenty hours of high-quality MPEG-2 format video which can then be transferred to DVD or Macromedia Flash.

Sony Ericsson K750

There is one side key on the left of the phone; when pressed in standby mode, it opens either the RDS FM radio or the Media Player as selected by the user, allowing playback of WAV/MP3/AAC audio files, and 3GP/MPEG-4 video files.

Sony Ericsson W900i

It also includes Bluetooth, a 2 mega pixel digital camera with auto-focus and the ability to take QVGA video at 30 frame/s supplemented by a second VGA camera used for video calling and self-portraits and most advertised of all, its ability to play MP3 audio files in Walkman mode for up to 30 hours and its ability to play long length MPEG-4 videos.

Your Body Sub Atomic

The digital download comes with an Adobe flash liner "booklet" (with a looping ambient track) detailing the title tracks story and the remixers, it also comes with a high quality video of the "Feadz 2007 Mix" in .m4v format.


1080p

However, satellite services (e.g., DirecTV, XstreamHD and Dish Network) utilize the 1080p/24-30 format with MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 encoding for pay-per-view movies that are downloaded in advance via satellite or on-demand via broadband.

Connect360

Although unable to support Apple's DRM protected media, recent updates to Connect360 support QuickTime's H.264, MPEG-4, DivX and Xvid video at a maximum resolution of 1080p.

DcVD

DcVD (Dreamcast Video Disc) is the proprietary video format based on the MPEG SOFDEC exclusively for the Sega Dreamcast.

EvoStream

EvoStream Media Server delivers outbound media through RTMP, RTMPS, LiveFLV, RTSP with RTP or MPEG-TS, HLS, HDS and direct MPEG-TS.

F-F-F-Falling

It was the first single from the album Into and features the track "F-F-F-Falling" plus a video in MPEG-format, named "The Rasmus at Work", showing how the band made the album Into.

High-definition pre-recorded media and compression

Many codecs are in contention such as Microsoft's Windows Media 9(VC1), H.264/AVC (MPEG-4 Part 10) and the VP6/VP7 codecs from On2 Technologies.

Hiroshi Yasuda

In the sphere of international standardization, together with Dr. Leonardo Chiariglione he founded the Moving Picture Experts Group which standardized MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3, better known as MP3.

Inter frame

Video codecs such as MPEG-2, H.264 or Ogg Theora reduce the amount of data in a stream by following key frames with one or more inter frames.

International Standard Audiovisual Number

The ISAN identifier is incorporated in many draft and final standards such as AACS, DCI, MPEG, DVB, and ATSC.

IRN/USA Radio Network

The remaining two channels are aboard the SES Americoms AMC-3 Satellite located at 87° west longitude and utilizes a DVB MPEG-2 Compliant technology.

Marina Bosi

She became Dolby's representative to the MPEG audio standards committee and served as the Editor of the committee that developed the "Advanced Audio Coding" (AAC) standard that was later brought to mainstream attention by its use in the Apple iPod.

MP4 player

Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics's video processing Rockchip has been incorporated into many MP4 players, supporting AVI with no B frames in MPEG-4 Part 2 (not Part 14), while MP2 audio compression is used.

Nokia N93

The phone had a 3.2-megapixel camera, Carl Zeiss optics and 3x optical zoom (the first Nokia phone to have it) as well as a 30 fps 640×480 (VGA) MPEG-4 video recording capability.

Pre-echo

It occurs in transform-based audio compression algorithms – typically based on the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) – such as MP3, MPEG-4 AAC, and Vorbis, and is due to quantization noise being spread over the entire transform-window of the codec.

Avoiding pre-echo is a substantial design difficulty in transform domain lossy audio codecs such as MP3, MPEG-4 AAC, and Vorbis.

PVD Disc

DcVD – A non-standard MPEG-1 format for the Sega Dreamcast video game console

Pyglet

Images, video, and sound files in a range of formats can be done natively, with more additional capabilities supplied by the optional AVbin plugin, which uses the Libav package to provide support for audio formats including MP3, Ogg/Vorbis, and Windows Media Audio, and video formats such as DivX, MPEG-2, H.264, WMV, and XviD.

Radoviš

There are two private local television channels - TV EMI and TV Kobra, also two cable TV operators - Tomi and AndesNet, DVB-T (MPEG-4) - BoomTV, DirectToHome TV - TotalTV, Internet Providers (Cable, ADSL, WDSL, WiFi) and WiFi hotspots across the city.

Scalable Video Coding

H.264/MPEG-4 AVC was developed jointly by ITU-T and ISO/IEC JTC 1.

Super Video CD

To reduce the data rate without significantly reducing quality, the size of the GOP can be increased, the maximum data rate can be exceeded, and a different MPEG-2 quantization matrix can be used.

The Rub

Four songs by The Rub were also included on one of the first MPEG digital/audio CDs, Browser Barbarians released by DMR Diversions (Ridgecrest, California).
