Table 1. MPEG encoder and container descriptions

MPEG4 – MP4 MPEG-4 Part 2 is for situations where low bit rate and low resolution are mandated by other conditions of the applications, such as network bandwidth or device size. Examples of video applications for MPEG-4 are cell phones, some low-end video conferencing systems, and surveillance systems. MPEG-4 is important for legacy handheld devices that do not support H.264.

H264 – MP4 H.264, MPEG-4 Part 10, or AVC (Advanced Video Coding) was designed for high data compression while maintaining better quality than its predecessor, H.263. It also addresses a broad range of applications from low bit rate to high bit rate and from low resolution such as cell phones to high resolution such as broadcast.

Niagara SCX’s H.264 is Baseline Profile.

The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) defined 3GP as a multimedia container format for use on 3G mobile phones. It stores video streams such as MPEG-4 or H.264 and audio streams such as AAC.

This format has two defined standards:

∙3GPP for GSM-based mobile phones

∙3GPP2 for CDMA-based mobile phones

This setting creates an H.263 stream stored in a 3GPP container.

H264 – 3GP This setting creates an H.264 stream stored in a 3GP container.

H264 – 3G2 This setting creates an H.264 stream stored in a 3G2 container.

MPEG4 – 3GP This setting creates an MPEG-4 stream stored in a 3GP container.

MPEG4 – 3G2 This setting creates an MPEG-4 stream stored in a 3G2 container.

H263 – 3GP This setting creates an H.263 stream stored in a 3GP container.

H263 – 3G2 This setting creates an H.263 stream stored in a 3G2 container.
