Interview With The MPEG Committee's Founder

Posted by timothy on Tuesday April 13, 2004 @08:11PM from the moving-pictures dept.

JasonFleischer points out this "interview with Leonardo Chiariglione, digital video pioneer and founder of the MPEG standards committee, is available on the public access section Scientific American's website. In the interview Chiariglione explains the motivations and hopes for his new Digital Media Project -- an attempt to integrate existing technologies to create a transparent, universal, non-proprietary system for digital rights management. Of particular interest to some /.ers may be his old article from Linux Journal that talks about the relationship between Open Source and MPEG standards."

Oh no ... more ordure added to the MPEG standard.

A poorly designed standard by a group of self interested parties. You engineer a complex non logical and deficient standard that is sensitive to transmission delays not to mention other glaring sins and you guarantee youll have a job for life as a so called expert. ( look at windows !! )
