OPTIMOD
INTRODUCTION
Choosing your Encoder
The state of the art in encoder technology changes weekly. We can give no specific rec-
ommendations. However, be aware that different encoders are optimized for different bit
rates, and you should match your encoder to your potential audience. An encoder appro-
priate for a dial-up rate of 20kb/sec may not be optimum for ISDN, DSL, or T-1 rates.
This makes it necessary to use more than one algorithm to optimally serve audiences
with these disparate connection speeds.
MP3
MPEG-1 Layer 3 has become a de-facto standard for distribution of non-streaming, high
fidelity audio on the Internet. The 6200 is well matched to MP3, and can effectively pre-
process audio intended for MP3 playback.
