[comp.compression] Looking for tech info

) <R38@psuvm.psu.edu> (06/26/91)

I am looking on behalf of a manufacturer of a graphics product capable
of decent throughput for real time anim playback but not great.  Where
can I find technical documentation on compression algorthims that
they could either buy or license for their product?

If you're looking for the Mac market, there's VideoWorks, which can
be licensed, and there's QuickTime (in Alpha, but soon to be part of
regular macintosh system software)

The latter is an open, growable standard for dynamic media in general,
and includes an API with great support for it ! ("Undo" implementable
in two (2) lines of code !)
