look like Sony ’s been busted for using a really quondam codec for its next - gen Blu - re data format . For its first Blu - ray moving picture , Sony will encode with MPEG-2 , which is the same codec used for today ’s sure-enough - fashioned DVD . Don Eklund , older vice chairman of advanced technology for Sony Pictures , has run low on record as say :
Advanced formats do n’t of necessity ameliorate picture quality . Our end is to present the best picture character for Blu - ray . aright now , and for the foreseeable futurity , that ’s with MPEG-2 .
Wowee , I say . Now , is n’t Blu - light beam hypothesise to support the MPEG-4 AVC , also known as H.264 , which enables content to be encoded at much gamy bitrates without immense increases in file size ? I mean , is n’t this variety of the gunpoint ? But the biggest surprise may fall to Apple , which actually has aboriginal financial backing in its latest group O for H.264 .
