[M4IF Discuss] Details of patent claims

[Larry Horn]

Hello, Iain.
The MPEG-4 Visual Patent Porfolio patents will be posted in due course.
They all have been determined by an independent paent expert to be
essential to the MPEG-4 Visual (Simple and Core) Standard and support
the proposed licensing terms.  In addition, I think it is safe to assume
that other compression standards are also subject to licensing under
applicable patents.
Regards,
Larry Horn

Subject: [M4IF Discuss] Details of patent claims
Is there a statement available giving the details of the claims made by
the MP4 Visual patent holders ? For example, the short header mode is
identical to baseline H.263 which (as far as I'm aware) isn't covered by
a licensing scheme. Is there evidence that an MPEG4 Visual codec
operating in this mode actually requires licensing ?
Thanks
