Motion JPEG - Advantages

Advantages

  • It is simple to implement because it uses a mature compression standard (JPG) with well-developed libraries, and it's an intraframe method of compression.
  • It tolerates rapidly changing motion in the video stream, whereas compression schemes using interframe compression can often experience unacceptable quality loss when the video content changes significantly between each frame.
  • Because the M-JPEG standard emerged from a market-adoption process rather than a standards body, it enjoys broad client support — most major web browsers and players provide native support and plug-ins are available for the rest.
  • Minimal hardware is required because it is not computationally intensive.

Famous quotes containing the word advantages:

    “Men hear gladly of the power of blood or race. Every body likes to know that his advantages cannot be attributed to air, soil, sea, or to local wealth, as mines and quarries, nor to laws and traditions, nor to fortune, but to superior brain, as it makes the praise more personal to him.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “If the minds of women were enlightened and improved, the domestic circle would be more frequently refreshed by intelligent conversation, a means of edification now deplorably neglected, for want of that cultivation which these intellectual advantages would confer.”
    —Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)

    “No advantages in this world are pure and unmixed.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)
