SF Guide to Digital Video Compression with Mark Long

 

A breakthrough technology, Digital Video Compression is important to all forms of electronic entertainment and communications.

The SF Guide to DVC is an information packed, quality video production which offers an in depth, on location tour of one of this century’s most exciting and revolutionary technological developments.

Drawing on 25 years of experience in the satellite telecommunication industry, author, technical trainer and consultant, Mark Long, takes us on a journey through the brave new world that was born from the marriage of tiny Ku-band satellite dishes and digital video compression.  He takes the viewer on a down-to-earth tour of what video compression does and how it works.

Using simple language and analogies, along with detailed animated graphics, Mr. Long makes video compression easy to understand.

Featuring interviews with satellite and compression industry leaders, this technical short course, The SF Guide to Digital Video Compression, covers MPEG 1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and Digital Video Broadcasting.  Topics covered include:

  • From Analog to Digital
  • Advantages of Digital Video Compression
  • The Video Compression Imperative

This information packed DVD also demonstrates a wide array of compression applications, including:

educational satellite delivery,
desktop and corporate video-conferencing,
twisted pair telephone delivery,
direct to home satellite delivery,
personal computer & CD ROM,
laboratory demos of MPEG 2 digital video at various data compression rates.

This program offers a virtual short course on the technical concepts used in compression. Basic concepts such as bandwidth are covered, along with the differences between the analog and digital worlds. A look at the history of compression broadens our background, and a look at the advantages of using digital compression opens our eyes to the numerous applications and future possibilities.
