About MPEG-1
MPEG-1 is a group of Audio and Video coding and compression standards agreed upon by Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG).
MPEG1 includes compression codecs for non-interlaced video signals and for perceptual coding of audio signals. The standard defines 3 layers, or levels of complexity, of MPEG audio coding:
- MPEG-1 Part 3 Layer 1, or MP1;
- MPEG-1 Part 3 Layer 2, or MP2;
- MPEG-1 Part 3 Layer 3, or MP3.
While MPEG1 applications are often low resolution and low bitrate, this standard allows resolution less than 4095x4095.
Now MPEG1 is the most compatible format in the MPEG family. It is used in almost all computers and VCD/DVD players.
