1280, 960, 640 50 progressive HD Video preprocessing Video compression provided by the ViBE EM4000 Encoder is designed to eliminate intra-frame and inter-frame redundancy. Any phenomenon, such as noise, which reduces the original picture redundancy will have a negative effect on encoding. Noise is particularly disadvantageous as it adds high frequencies to the picture and the encoder is then unable to distinguish these high frequencies from the useful information.
