Why MPEG?
30
What about H320 & H323?
  • H.320 is the ISDN “talking head” legacy standard.  It does not provide full motion
  • H.323 is really H.320 over IP, although the umbrella standard could support other technology
  • Both have a “telecom” flavor, and relay on servers (“gatekeeper”, “gateway”) for operation.
