A fully up-to-date guide to transformative consumer technologies

Digital video, whether in the form of broadcast, home entertainment, or consumer electronics, has become one of the most important parts of the marketplace. Video compression, or video coding, has been at the center of that marketplace revolution, and standards like high efficiency video coding (HEVC) have delivered increasingly rapid and high-quality video to homes and workplaces around the globe. Coding Video: A Practical Guide to HEVC and Beyond has served for over a decade as a practical guide to the landscape of video coding, its technical fundamentals, and its commercial aspects. Now fully updated to reflect a transformed digital video market, it promises to continue as the gold-standard introduction to the subject.

Coding Video readers will also find:

• A companion website with extensive links to public domain software and analysis tools, updates, and more
• Detailed coverage of all major video formats and their coding parameters
• In-depth analysis of patents, licensing, and other commercial and legal issues

Coding Video is ideal for engineers, application developers, product designers, and other digital video professionals, as well as advanced undergraduate and graduate students in Engineering, Computer Science, and related subjects.
