13 * \ingroup codecs
14 * VP8 is vpx's newest video compression algorithm that uses motion
15 * compensated prediction, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coding of the
16 * prediction error signal and context dependent entropy coding techniques
17 * based on arithmetic principles. It features:
18 * - YUV 4:2:0 image format
19 * - Macro-block based coding (16x16 luma plus two 8x8 chroma)
20 * - 1/4 (1/8) pixel accuracy motion compensated prediction
21 * - 4x4 DCT transform
22 * - 128 level linear quantizer
23 * - In loop deblocking filter
24 * - Context-based entropy coding
