Abstract

A new digital media ear started a couple of months ago when 10 major cities in USA first boradcasted the all digital HDTV on the air. Digital video compression has been studied for decades but only recently, it becomes practical and is used in our daily life. We give an overview of the progress of video compression in recent years, particularly, the ones related to international standards. Through examples, we like to introduce this fantastic subject to the readers who were not familiar with it before.
