Here is the problem we have : content industry are very sensitive to real time coder and decoder spread in the nature. They want to avoid with MPEG-4, the current mp3 syndroma (the content is spread over the planet in very good and dense format). There seems to be no way out of this. We can not give to the content industry the two contradictory signal : we protect your content / we give the tools in the open to steal your content. That's why the soft is not available in public domain. Still : 1- Within the context of the W3C MPEG-4 collaboration, I will check if the user account can be made open to the W3C community. 2- Any of you can become freely a MPEG member by subscribing to your National Body and have accessto the user account. 3- See below. > > - drafts of the MPEG4 specifications > > Olivier wrote > http://drogo.cselt.stet.it/ufv/leonardo/mpeg-4/mpeg-4.html > but this does not exist. I think right URL must be > http://drogo.cselt.stet.it/ufv/leonardo/mpeg/public/mpeg-4_fcd/ > there are some zipped files corresponding to MPEG-4 parts 1,2,3,5,6. Yes. And indeed, part 5 is the software implementation of the standard in source code. You can check this. It will be probably less fun than the integrated Im1 application ... More when more available ... See you, Olivier
