MPEG-FAQ 4.0:

SECTION 11. - QUESTIONS

These are some questions, ideas or whatever problems, where still no
solutions is found or nobody knows an answer. Please contact me via e-mail
if YOU find a solution for:

1) Interleaving should be the next step in MPEG-development.
   There free audio- and video-code now. Now we have to
   synchronize it. Stefan Eckhardt and Simmons both can split
   a full-MPEG-stream, but there is no free code !

   And Chris Moar's demultiplexer is available, but still only
   works on UNIX !!

   So, who's working on it ?

2) Are there multimedia-specialized mailboxes out there ? Please send
   a filelisting of your mpeg-archive, a description of how to obtain
   the files, costs, connection times, telefon-numbers etc.

3) Who can send me informations about MPEG-I-Videos stored on CD-I CD's ?
   Who can provide a list and keep it up-to-date ?
   Who can provide information about CD-I and MPEG in general ?

4) I'm still looking for a program, that I cant find anymore.
   "SPRAW", a program to convert real MPEG-stream into Xing-format
   (well we would really need one, thats doing the other way around).
   Whos has them ? Who knows more ?

5) That MPEG book announced for Spring 1994 ? Is that really out ?
   How has it's exact title, author names and ISBN-number ?
   Is the following title right ?

       "MPEG1 video compression standard"

6) Is this FAQ really readable with the FAQ-mode from emacs ?
   Can you read it with a good news-reader question by question ?
   Did not try this out ...


7) How many people would like to have a CD-Rom containing material
   for testing MPEG-encoders ? Source material, example streams
   for several needs, for several formats, comparable encoding
   results and messurements and all needed encoding, decoding
   tools could be supplied. If there are enough, we might do some.
   We already have enough reference material, frames and utils and
   ideal streams to compare results.
