Next: Intra Frame Coding
 Up: H. 261 Compression
 Previous: H. 261 Compression
The basic approach to H. 261 Compression is summarised as follows:
-  Decoded Sequence
 -  Frame types are CCIR 601 CIF (352x288) and QCIF (176x144)
images with 4:2:0 subsampling.
 -  Two frame types: Intraframes (I-frames) and Interframes
(P-frames)
 -  I-frames use basically JPEG
 -  P-frames use pseudo-differences from previous
frame (predicted), so frames depend on each other.
 -  I-frame provide us with an accessing point.
