[...] on parle énormément du format de compression musicale MP3 qui permet de télécharger des morceaux de musique sur Internet. Ce format n'est pas illicite en soi, il peut être utilisé pour compresser ses propres disques et pour son usage personnel. Par contre, contrairement à ce qui est dit ici et là, la mise à disposition du public d'œuvres musicales est prohibée sauf autorisation des ayants droit (auteurs, éditeurs, producteurs, interprètes). Le simple fait de détenir de tels fichiers sans avoir acquis le support original (CD, cassette...) est un délit.  6, record 1, French, - format%20de%20compression%20musicale%20MP3

There is a further version of the CD-I known as full-motion video(FMV). In this format, audio and video are encoded using the MPEG standard... This means that full-motion video with high-quality stereo can be output from a CD.  8, record 3, English, - full%2Dmotion%20video

Although real motion video is the holy grail of multimedia, it still is impractical using today’s technology. The current method for working with video is by capturing and converting the analog signal from a video source and either manipulating the image’s data (which is written to video tape) or compressing the data using compression techniques (either software-only compression or a combination of hardware and software compression). To display or capture a single screen of an NTSC [National Television System Committee] signal, you must have a video frame grabber. ... Real-time frame grabbers capture full-motion video at a rate between 15 and 30 frames-per-second using video compression ...  4, record 3, English, - full%2Dmotion%20video

In the NTSC format, it is achieved when the video signal is reproduced at 30 frames per second and in the PAL format, it occurs at 25 fps.  7, record 3, English, - full%2Dmotion%20video

Le CD-I fait appel à des techniques très sophistiquées de compression d'images pour pouvoir stocker des images animées, très consommatrices d'espace. L'algorithme de compression est baptisé «Full Motion Video» (FMV). C'est la mise au point de cet algorithme qui a permis au CD-I de pouvoir afficher jusqu'à 72 minutes d'images animées plein écran. La qualité de l'image ainsi traitée est équivalente à celle d'un magnétoscope VHS mais inférieure à celle d'un LaserDisc.  4, record 3, French, - vid%C3%A9o%20plein%20%C3%A9cran

The MPEG standard is primarily a bitstream specification, although it also specifies a typical decoding process to assist in interpreting the bitstream specification. This approach supports data interchange, but it does not restrict creativity and innovation in the means for creating or decoding that bitstream. The bitstream architecture is based on a sequence of pictures, each of which contains the data needed to create a single displayable image. Note that the order of transmission of pictures in the data stream may not be the same as the order in which pictures will be displayed-this will be evident shortly. There are four different kinds of pictures, depending on how each picture is to be decoded : I pictures.... P pictures.... B pictures.... D pictures are a special format that is only used for implementing fast search modes.  1, record 4, English, - D%20picture
