MPEG-4 provides DVD quality video, but uses lower bit rate so that it’s feasible to transmit digitized video streams in LAN, and also in WAN, where bandwidth is more critical, and hard to guarantee. MJPEG’s bandwidth requirement is a little bit more than MPEG-4, while its resolution and frame rate are much worse. MPEG-2 can provide DVD-like video, just like MPEG-4. However, MPEG-2’s bandwidth requirement is so high that it’s not possible to use in a LAN or WAN environment.
