Abstract

In recent years the MPEG-4 ISO compression standard has gained much attention. With its high compression ratio it promises to make broadband streaming more feasible. However, currently there are only a limited number of fully ISO standard compliant MPEG-4 systems widely available (Apple's Quicktime 6 is one of the first). Some partial implementations, such as the MPEG-4 style codec "DivX" are popular for encoding video content into AVI (Audio Video Interleave) files. The AVI file format was originally not intended for streaming. In this report we document our efforts to enable streaming of DivX AVI files across broadband IP based networks. This will allow the large number of existing AVI files to be made available in streaming applications.
