  MPEG-2 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MPEG-2 (1994) is the designation for a group of audio and video coding standards agreed upon by MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group), and published as the ISO/IEC 13818 international standard.
The Video part (part 2) of MPEG-2 is similar to MPEG-1, but also provides support for interlaced video (the format used by broadcast TV systems).
Increasing quantization leads to visible artifacts when the stream is decoded, generally in the form of "mosaicing", where the discontinuities at the edges of macroblocks become more visible as bit rate is reduced.

MPEG audio compression is achieved by taking advantage of the "masking" tendency inherent in the human ear.
In terms of web-based MPEG audio, two types are common:.mp2, which is MPEG-1 layer 2; and.mp3, which is MPEG-1, layer 3.

 STMicroelectronics | STA013 MPEG 2.5 LAYER III (MP3) SOURCE DECODER
In Layer I and II, a filter bank creates 32 subbands representation of the input audio stream, which are then quantized and coded under control of the psychoacoustic model from which a blockwise adaptive bit allocation is derived.
Layer I is a simplified version of the MUSICAM coding scheme, most appropriate for consumer applications, where the very low bitrate is not mandatory.
Layer II introduces further compression with respect to Layer I, by redundance and irrelevence removal on the scale factors, and it uses more precise quantisation.

However, in the United States the trademark, MUSICAM, is protected by one of the licensees of Layer 2.

 MPEG Audio Decoder Module - Final Report
The clock is synced with the data so that the data is latched on the rising edge of the clock as shown in figure 2 in Appendix C. The TMS320AV120FN has a 512 byte data buffer to withstand small variations in the incoming bitrate and can operate with bitrates lower than 448 kbits/sec.
If the MPEG frame that it receives is determined invalid by the decoder algorithm then the frame will be muted and no signal will be produced.
The signal is decompressed using the built-in MPEG algorithm, the internal buffers and the arithmetic unit.

 MPEG-FAQ 4.1: What is MPEG-2?
MPEG also describes a decoding (reconstruction) process where the coded bits are mapped from the compact representation into the original, raw format of the image sequence.
MPEG non-intra coding introduces the concept of the distribution of bits across multiple pictures, augmenting the distribution space to 3 dimensions.
Future MPEG decoders will likely include on-chip arbitrary sample rate converters, perhaps capable of operating in the vertical direction (although there is little need of this in applications using standard TV monitors where line count is constant, with the possible exception of windowing in cable box graphical user interfaces).

If you switch off the Id3v2 tags and it rips right, then switch it back on - the tag is only written after the mp3 file has been created, and writing the tag does not change the format of the file (the tag is inserted at the front of the file).
winamp would say that every track with id3v2 that were created with dmc would be mpeg 1 layer 2..

MPEG-2 (1994) is the designation for a group of audio and video coding standards agreed upon by MPEG (Motion Pictures Coding Experts Group), and published as ISO standard 13818.
MPEG-2 is typically used to encode audio and video for broadcast signals, including digital satellite and Cable TV.
Increasing quantization leads to visible artefacts when the stream is decoded, generally in the form of "mosaicing", where the discontinuities at the edges of macroblocks become more visible as bit rate is reduced.

 MPEG-4 description
Independent of the media type, this layer allows identification of the type of access unit (e.g., video or audio frames, scene description commands) in elementary streams, recovery of the media object’s or scene description’s time base, and it enables synchronization among them.
Multiplexing at this layer may be used, for example, to group ES with similar QoS requirements, reduce the number of network connections or the end to end delay.
Only the interface to this layer is specified by MPEG-4 while the concrete mapping of the data packets and control signaling must be done in collaboration with the bodies that have jurisdiction over the respective transport protocol.

ATSC is almost exactly the same as Digcipher 2 and of course it's no surprise that General Instrument was on the comitee that recommended ATSC to the FCC.
In theory, ATSC and Digicipher 2 have a couple of advantages over MPEG-2/DVB, especially in the area of signal aquisition time, however, this is not enough to justifying a totally different standard than the rest of the world.
MPEG's ability to compress video so well relies on the similarity between pictures over time, so most of the time, MPEG video is sending the difference between prior and upcoming pictures using B and P-pictures.

MPEG (pronounced M-peg), which stands for Moving Picture Experts Group, is the name of family of standards used for coding audio-visual information (e.g., movies, video, music) in a digital compressed format.
The major advantage of MPEG compared to other video and audio coding formats is that MPEG files are much smaller for the same quality.
MPEG.ORG is published by MpegTV and edited by Tristan Savatier who has been an active member of the MPEG Committee from 1988 to 1995 and has participated to the making of the MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 Video standards.

The layer 3 encoding shows almost no audible degradation, but high frequencies in the layer 2 file sound "raw" and some spurious noice is introduced (listen carefully at the end of the sample).
MPEG audio compression uses a lossy compression algorithm that achieves a compression rate of 1:3 up to 1:24 compared to raw PCM data.

 Podcasting and MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 Layer III Audio
For those who are familiar with the internal format of MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) files, the specific file type, either MPEG-1 or MPEG-2, can be easily determined by examining the header information, located at the beginning of the MPEG file, in a hex editor program.
Using a recent Adam Curry DSC (Daily Source Code) podcast* as an example, upon examination we find that the file is an MPEG-2 Layer III file with a 22.05 kHz audio sampling rate, a datarate (bitrate) of 64 kbps, and is 2-channel stereo.
The notation MPEG 2.0 layer 3 indicates that the file format is MPEG-2 and the audio encoding is Layer 3.

MPEG Streamclip is an application that converts MPEG files (including transport streams) into muxed, demuxed, QuickTime, AVI and DV files with more than professional quality, so you can easily import them in Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro and Toast 6.
MPEG Streamclip FULLY supports the DreamBox DM7000/DM5620/DM500 (www.dream-multimedia-tv.com), and the Topfield TF5000PVR/TF5000PVRt/TF5500PVR (www.topfield.co.kr), two important families of DVB set-top boxes (all digital satellite receivers, except the TF5000PVRt which is terrestrial and supports DVB-T); two powerful connection tools for these devices have been developed and included in MPEG Streamclip.
MPEG Streamclip is also compatible with most DVD recorders, since it can open and convert unencrypted VOB or VRO files, and supports AC3 audio.
