MPEG-4 versus MPEG-2: Choosing the Standard that's Right for You
The long-running compression debate continues to rage as advocates of one
standard tout its advantages in comparison to the other. The history of
satellite-enabled communications has been one of innovation after
innovation, but the journey has had its fair share of hardware and software
casualties. In an era of constrained budgets and delays on capital
expenditures, can a more capable MPEG standard become cost-effective? Does
it really make that much difference to the end user? Will the relentless
march toward 3D and other mainstream and evolving applications drive MPEG-4
toward universal adoption? On paper, the advantages of MPEG-4 are clear. But
in the end, is it worth the cost?
