What are MPEG I, P and B frames?
- by Fasih Khatib
I was recently going over MPEG articles and videos to understand how it works. I understand what I, P and B frames do but I do not understand how the prediction is calculated.
Assume that I want to record a video of a ball falling from the sky to the ground and then bouncing a couple of times before finally coming to a halt.
Also, I am not clear with the concept of the 16x16 macroblock.
Please tell me:
how prediction is calulated
what is macroblock and how it helps in MPEG encoding
