Mobile Devices Dominate the MPEG-4 AVC Market

Monday July 11, 2010

The MPEG-4 AVC codec may be improving compression for digital video devices such as set-top boxes (STBs) and Blu-ray Disc devices, but the number of mobile devices compatible with MPEG-4 AVC far outweighs those more traditional digital video products.

Many consumers now expect their portable devices to provide high-quality video and most mobile devices are using the latest MPEG open standard to meet that expectation. In short, the latest MPEG codec has done a lot of the heavy lifting required to spread the analog-to-digital transition to the red-hot portable device category.
