2-d video coding

Standard: MPEG-1
Standard Part # Part name Description
MPEG-1 2 Video This standard specifies a compressed progressive video format
Standard: MPEG-2
Standard Part # Part name Description
MPEG-2 2 Video This standard specifies a compression format for interlaced video
Standard: MPEG-4
Standard Part # Part name Description
MPEG-4 2 Video This standard specifies a compression format for video objects
MPEG-4 7 Optimised software for MPEG-4 tools This standard specifies an optimised version of reference software for video
MPEG-4 10 Advanced Video Coding This standard specifies a video compression format more efficient than MPEG-4 Visual
MPEG-4 29 Web Video Coding Specification of a video compression format whose baseline profile is intended to be Type 1
MPEG-4 31 Video Coding for Browsers A standard that is expected to include a Type 1 Baseline Profile and one or more Type 2 Profiles
MPEG-4 33 Internet Video Coding Exploration targeting type 1 video compression format
Standard: MPEG-B
Standard Part # Part name Description
MPEG-B 11 Green Metadata A standard that defines metadata enabling a decoder to consume less energy while providing a usable video
Standard: MPEG-C
Standard Part # Part name Description
MPEG-C 6 Tools for reconfigurable media coding implementations Collection of tools to implement RVC
MPEG-C 7 Supplemental enhancement information messages for coded video bitstreams This standard specifies the syntax and semantics of supplemental enhancement information (SEI) messages. The SEI messages defined in this standard may be conveyed within coded video bitstreams in a manner specified in a video coding specification or may be conveyed by other means as determined by the specifications for systems that make use of such coded video bitstreams.
Standard: MPEG-H
Standard Part # Part name Description
MPEG-H 2 High Efficiency Video Coding HEVC provides a novel video format with a compression capability twice that of AVC
MPEG-H 14 Conversion and coding practices for high-dynamic-range and wide-colour-gamut video A technical report providing examples of conversion and coding of high-dynamic-range and wide-colour-gamut video
Standard: MPEG-5
Standard Part # Part name Description
MPEG-5 2 Low Complexity Enhancement Video Coding Specification of a data stream structure defined by two component streams, a base stream decodable by a hardware decoder, and an enhancement stream suitable for software processing implementation with sustainable power consumption. The enhancement stream will provide new features such as compression capability extension to existing codecs, lower encoding and decoding complexity, for on demand and live streaming applications.
Standard: Exploration
Standard Part # Part name Description
Exploration 14 Additional Support for Coding of Interlaced Video in HEVC Exploration on the possible addition of interlace-specific coding tools in HEVC
Exploration 25 Network Distributed Media Coding Support for transcoding
Exploration 34 Video Coding for Machines The MPEG activity on Video Coding for Machines (VCM) aims to standardize a bitstream format generated by compressing both a video stream and previously extracted features. The bitstream should enable multiple machine vision tasks
