MPEG rules, says DIVI.......

MPEG rules in the studio

MPEG is positioned to end the life of JPEG in the studio, according to Neil
Brydon from DiviCom. This is significant, given that the majority of
non-linear editing systems currently on the market use JPEG.

The prediction was made at IBC Conference's briefing session yesterday,
which looked at the issue of MPEG in the studio. Chaired by Dr Eric
Badique from the European Commission, a panel of technical specialists
from various parts of the industry extolled the virtues of this sophisticated
compression algorithm.

Brydon illustrated how rapidly MPEG has developed onto PC
card-mounted MPEG encoders replacing 12U boxes from just four years
ago. "MPEG encoding is definitely maturing," he said.

Within the studio production chain, MPEG's advantages include that DV
format material can be converted to MPEG without going down to
baseband, ensuring the recorded information's integrity. Also its
scaleability with respect to bandwidth creates very efficient systems within
a facility.

Neil Gilchrist from BBC Research and Development used the forum to
report on the activities of the ATLANTIC consortium, which is looking at
ways of preserving video and audio quality in an MPEG coded environment.
