Good. Want more people to understand how compression works.
Things like motion estimation, encoding the differences in frames, all that stuff is magic to the uninitiated. :) But this stuff is absolutely worth learning and every engineer should show interest :)
- RivieraKid 7y agoWhy is it worth learning? I have a long list of stuff that I want to learn but codecs don't seem useful enough to be included there.
- vkaku 7y agoCodecs teach you if the high fidelity of the data you store may not be as important as you'd think it is, and sometimes you'd be able to process all of that with a fraction of the compute power and cost involved.
