What is Full D1 compression?

Recommended Posts


Or...

 

720x480 (NTSC)

720x576 (PAL)

 

In analog, a full screen width is 720 pixels but that includes the horizontal blanking bar. The actual displayed area is 704 pixels.

Oh.. I see.. Thanks everyone!

 

As for compression, does it mean that an MJPEG compression shows playback in the form of pictures instead of realtime video like in H.264?

Yes, M-JPEG is basically a series of JPEG still images. It is still real-time and can run as many frames per second as a streaming codec.

 

h.264, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, h.263 and others are streaming codecs. Most of the streaming codecs do have the capability of acting just like M-JPEG if their compression is set for I-frame only (vs. IP, IBP, etc.). I-frames are also basically complete JPEG images and B-frames and P-frames are predictive frames that don't contain all picture information.

Given the 704 full screen width - many erroneously categorize their DVR's as D1, when they are actually 4CIF.

 

Just a technicality, but one to be aware of in certain cases.
