  2. Comparison of video codecs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_video_codecs

    CBR is commonly used for videoconferences, satellite and cable broadcasting. VBR is commonly used for video CD/DVD creation and video in programs. Bit rate control is suited to video streaming. For offline storage and viewing, it is typically preferable to encode at constant quality (usually defined by quantization) rather than using bit rate ...

  3. Variable bitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_bitrate

    Variable bitrate. Variable bitrate (VBR) is a term used in telecommunications and computing that relates to the bitrate used in sound or video encoding. As opposed to constant bitrate (CBR), VBR files vary the amount of output data per time segment. VBR allows a higher bitrate (and therefore more storage space) to be allocated to the more ...

  4. Average bitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_bitrate

    Average bitrate can also refer to a form of variable bitrate (VBR) encoding in which the encoder will try to reach a target average bitrate or file size while allowing the bitrate to vary between different parts of the audio or video. As it is a form of variable bitrate, this allows more complex portions of the material to use more bits and ...

  5. Traffic contract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_contract

    The CBR service category is used for connections that transport traffic at a constant bit rate, where there is an inherent reliance on time synchronisation between the traffic source and destination. CBR is tailored for any type of data for which the end-systems require predictable response time and a static amount of bandwidth continuously ...

  6. Constant bitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_bitrate

    Constant bitrate (CBR) is a term used in telecommunications, relating to the quality of service. Compare with variable bitrate. [1] When referring to codecs, constant bit rate encoding means that the rate at which a codec's output data should be consumed is constant. CBR is useful for streaming multimedia content on limited capacity channels ...

  7. Advanced Video Coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Video_Coding

    The intent of the H.264/AVC project was to create a standard capable of providing good video quality at substantially lower bit rates than previous standards (i.e., half or less the bit rate of MPEG-2, H.263, or MPEG-4 Part 2), without increasing the complexity of design so much that it would be impractical or excessively expensive to implement.

  8. Pirated movie release types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirated_movie_release_types

    Extremely common. Blu-ray and 4K Blu-ray make up a large share of the market, despite each segment making up a smaller market share than DVD by itself. 4K CBR; VBR; Uncommon. 4K (2160p) content released in Constant Bit-Rate (CBR) and Variable Bit-Rate (VBR) with emphasis on quality.

  9. Video buffering verifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_buffering_verifier

    There are two operational modes of VBV: Constant Bit Rate (CBR) and Variable Bit Rate (VBR). In CBR, the decoder's buffer is filled over time at a constant data rate. In VBR, the buffer is filled at a non-constant rate. In both cases, data is removed from the buffer in varying chunks, depending on the actual size of the coded frames.
