[M4IF Technotes] HD capable MPEG-4 decoders

[Eric Grab]

Ben,
DivX Codec 5.x (MPEG-4 ASP) will do HD decoding in real time on a reasonably fast PC.  720p (1280x720) is pretty easy.  For 1080p (1920x1080) you need a very fast PC and it depends on your combination of features such as q-pel and post processing.  With some testing we have done, using q-pel and deblocking postprocessing gives great results at the higher resolutions.  Also the bit rate for 720p is about 4MB, and for 1080 it is about 7MB.
