xvidcore - MPEG-4 Simple and Advanced Simple Profile codec
- Description:
The Xvid video codec implements MPEG-4 Simple Profile and Advanced
Simple Profile standards. It permits compressing and decompressing
digital video in order to reduce the required bandwidth of video data
for transmission over computer networks or efficient storage on CDs or
DVDs.
Many years ago (before h264 and h265) Xvid used to have an unrivaled
quality that made it gain a great popularity and therefore was adopted
by many other GPLed applications, like e.g. Transcode, MEncoder,
MPlayer, Xine and many more. Today just exists for compatibility
reasons.
