GARCIA-VAZQUEZ, M.S.; RAMIREZ-ACOSTA, A.A. and GARCIA-GARDUNO, V. Codecs in the Video Streaming Technology: An Analysis of Performance in the IPTV Framework. Ing. invest. y tecnol. [online]. 2011, vol.12, n.1, pp.39-49. ISSN 2594-0732.
Thanks to the permanent evolution of codecs for video and the coding algorithms, every time with better performance, the television has found a new way of transmission across Internet. Taking into account these evolutions, the performance of the most commercial codecs based on MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 (RealNetworks, Apple) and VC-1 (Microsoft) standards is analyzed in this article.
