Extremely computation intensive:

Current state-of-the art in video compression
technology requires

|
custom chipset to obtain real-time performance in
MPEG-2 encoding.

Roughly speaking, something close to CIF video (CCIR
4:2:0
|
|
|
CIF=352x240 at 30 frames/second or 352 x288 at 25
frames/second) can
|
|
be decoded in software satisfactorily. It requires
processing of 69,300
|
|
|
blocks per second.
|
|
|
|
• |
In comparison, a broadcast quality video (CIR-601
4:2:2: 720x480 at 30
|
|
|
frames/second or 352x576 at 25 frames/second)
requires processing of
|
|
|
405,000 blocks per second.
|
|
|
|
• |
a production or medical quality video (MPEG-2 HIGH@HIGH-1440
|
|
|
profile=1920x1152x 60 frames/second) will require
processing of
|
|
|
5,184,000 blocks per second.
