	Codec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Codecs encode a stream or signal for transmission, storage or encryption and decode it for viewing or editing.
		Codecs are often used in videoconferencing and streaming media solutions.
		There are lossless codecs as well, but for most purposes the almost imperceptible increase in quality is not worth the considerable increase in data size.

	Audio codec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An audio codec is a computer program that compresses/decompresses digital audio data according to a given audio file format or streaming audio format.
		Most codecs are implemented as libraries which interface to one or more multimedia players, such as XMMS, Winamp or Windows Media Player.
		In some contexts, the term "audio codec" can refer to a hardware implementation or sound card.

	Home - Codec
		Commons Codec provides implementations of common encoders and decoders such as Base64, Hex, Phonetic and URLs.
		Codec was formed as an attempt to focus development effort on one definitive implementation of the Base64 encoder.
		At the time of Codec's proposal, there were approximately 34 different Java classes that dealt with Base64 encoding spread over the Foundation's CVS repository.

	Codec
		Short for compression / decompression, a codec is an algorithm or special computer program that reduces the number of bytes consumed by large files.
		Codecs are often used with videos distributed over the Internet; codecs enable what would normally be a very large video file to be much smaller.
		To resolve many issues related to a codec, users should download the latest codec from either the media player provider or from the developer of the type of video or audio file being played.

	codec - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about codec
		It is used in applications such as remote broadcast-quality voiceovers recorded in a remote studio and transmitted via codecs and Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) lines to a central studio for final mixing.
		Codecs are also used to compress and decompress digital audio and video for multimedia presentations, especially when delivered over the Internet using streaming technology.
		MPEG is another example of a popular codec.

		The Canopus download page has a free software-only version of this codec which will install on machines which are not equipped with their capture hardware.
		It seems that this codec is installed along with the software for the "Alaris Wee Cam." The codec doesn't appear to be available separately but, allegedly, works fine if you install the Wee Cam software even without the camera.

	TechSmith Screen Capture Codec (TSCC)
		Codecs are applied to audio, video and image files to compress their size.
		So, the video codec is responsible for compressing the video frames during recording and for reconstructing the video frames during playback.
		Even codecs that are more widely distributed do not perform as well as the TechSmith codec to deliver the highest quality, smallest file size and fastest compression speed.

	Encyclopedia article on Codec [EncycloZine] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Codec is a portmanteau of "coder/decoder", which describes a device or program capable of performing transformations on a data stream or signal.
		The raw encoded form of audio and video data is often called essence, to distinguish it from the metadata information that together make up the information content of the stream and any "wrapper" data that is then added to aid access to or improve the robustness of the stream.
		The codec is not to be confused with the video file format (or container) used to store the a/v information encoded by the codec.

	Codec Comparison
		I still don't have any H.264 codecs for testing since the existing open source implementations are pretty much unusable, and Vanguard Software decided that it was still too early for their H.264 simple profile implementation to be tested.
		Since the codec has not been changed since the last test, it would only be a waste of time to re-test it.
		All codecs were tested in a 2 pass setup using the settings suggested by the developers (in case of ffvfw the settings come from the lead developer of libavcodec and ffmpeg, the ffvfw developer only suggested the 2 pass encoding method to duplicate ffmpeg's behavior).

		2) The term codec is also an acronym that stands for "compression/decompression." A codec is an algorithm, or specialized computer program, that reduces the number of bytes consumed by large files and programs.
		In order to minimize the amount of storage space required for a complicated file, such as a video, compression is used.

	Codec - mpeg codec
		Codecs can both put the stream or signal into an encoded form (often for transmission, storage or encryption) and retrieve, or decode that form for viewing or manipulation in a format more appropriate for these operations.
		Each of these three pieces of data may be handled by different programs, processes, or hardware; but for the multimedia data stream to be useful in stored or transmitted form, they must be encapsulated together.
		The codec is not to be confused with the file format (or container) used to store the a/v information encoded by the codec.

		Most DV codecs are AVI codecs (found in the AVI section of this guide) but there are a few Quicktime codecs.

		This was the dominant codec for many years, which lead to it being installed on almost every computer and giving it excellent compatibility, but from a technological viewpoint it is obsolete.

		Just when we think that the codec wars are just about over, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has released a codec that works differently from other existing systems.
		This week the BBC said that it has been working on the codec since January last year, and now it is asking for open source help in taking it towards a product.
		At the moment the Dirac codec is in the early stages of development, started as a research tool.

		I make an effort to keep this information as accurate as possible, but if any of the data is wrong, let me know and I'll correct it.
		This is about what you would expect; FLAC is designed to put most of the processing on the encoding side, which is only done once, whereas the adaptive codecs take as long to decode as encode.
		This is a summary table with just the most 'economic' modes (the ones that give the most compression for the least amount of encode/decode time) for each codec.

	Download Movies - Movie Downloads - DivX Movies
		Both codec bundles are available as free downloads.
		The company started out selling their codec to create and play DivX movie downloads, then interested a few smaller consumer electronics firms and integrated circuit manufacturers, and now virtually all the major consumer electronics companies are coming out with products that support DivX.
		Last year we saw this happen to new movies such as Star Wars and Spider-Man. The pre-release of free movies online has become a growing concern for Hollywood studios, even if to date the trend has shown little indication that free movie downloads are undermining box office revenues.
