Video coding format: History & Standards

A video coding format (or sometimes video compression format) is an encoded format of digital video content, such as in a data file or bitstream. It typically uses a standardized video compression algorithm, most commonly based on discrete cosine transform (DCT) coding and motion compensation. A computer software or hardware component that compresses or…
