This is not a detailed implementation book, but it does explain what happens in compression, why compression works, and what will stop it from working.

This practical guide will be helpful to any video, audio, or broadcast engineer interested in maintainingtransmission/storage quality or in being able to more reliablydiagnose compression-related problems.

Plus, you get an invaluable CD-ROM of compression tools, encoders, and video clips for practice. With "Digital Video Compression, " you're sure to stay out in front of this exploding technology!
