MPEG-4 Settings

These are the tools for adjusting the MPEG-4 settings and controlling the video bit rate.

The MPEG-4 standard provides many different coding tools for various applications in different situations. Since most MPEG-4 clients do not support all of these tools, one usually defines and uses subsets of tools for different clients or groups of clients. These settings allow you to define the type of viewing client to use.

Adjusting the maximum bit rate and setting it to variable or constant is a good way of controlling the bandwidth used by the MPEG-4 video stream.

For more information on these advanced settings, please see the online help, and Video Stream Types, on page 10.
