Good mpeg1 book

Name: Anonymous 2010-06-03 15:53

Any /prog/gers know of a good book that covers the entire mpeg1 ISO standard that is cheaper than paying $500 USD1 the standard itself?

____________
1. That's just for 1,2 & 3 of the standard: http://mpeg.chiariglione.org/standards/mpeg-1/mpeg-1.htm

Pretty sure you can find copies of the standards in PDF if you google hard enough. Asking developers who developed free mpeg1 decoders or encoders might also be a good idea (or visiting their sites).

Hint: Try googling with filetype:pdf

Some stuff seems to be free, not sure if any of it's useful though:

I have some journal access but no access to iso standards. Here's a three possibly relevant articles chosen at random. If there's some specific you have a doi then that might be better than guessing http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=22c19298be7db28161d4646c62b381cb5dd3f290fcd1fb996d217c73094ddc3b

>>5 pretty much has a right though. Join the vlc, mplayer, gstreamer or xine developers' irc channel. Don't be too obvious about it. Maybe ask a general question about getting specs, then if someone can hook you up they might pm you.

Thanks. TBH I've had a pdf it I found thru Google for some time. I just wanted to be legit about it since I'm going to be paid to write something using it.

Bookstores don't carry such technical books in stores, so there's no easy way to ensure a book contains the entire standard without asking others for suggestions.

TBH thru legit
Christ.

If you're going to be paid to write something using it, your employer will pay for the standard.

MPEG Video Compression Standard1 and Video Demystified2 seem to contain some of the specification, but I couldn't tell you if the whole thing is covered.

I'm a waifu. My boy doesn't go outside very much and has very few friends. Currently he's searching for a job. I hope things will work out great for him since I can't help...

I've come across a worrying study on sperm count worldwide, according to this study, between 1938 and 1991 mean sperm count decreased significantly.

I don't understand women. They do and they hate each other. I thought everyone carried O/C spray. Carrying a Trebuchet in the middle of the night and not using it to get home just seems excessive and impossible. Don't get me started on the licensing costs just to legally own it. Pockets are annoying because they stab my sides and I can't even fit a legal sized trebuchet in one. Cargo pants are more comfortable. Saying this out-loud while wearing them has gotten me fired from too many jobs. That's why I carry this "t" shaped necklace. It lets people know that my imaginary friend can beat yours up.

Don't change these.
