I'm currently working on an infographic in an attempt to demystify ad simplify the confusing world of codecs. I work for a TV station, and I run the department responsible for assets and format cross conversions.
I want to bring my info graphic to the masses to see if anyone with similar or greater knowledge or more knowledge than me makes sense of this and can give suggestions for improvement.
I'm well aware that I have left some things out and have deliberately missed out some information, generally for the efforts of preventing confusion. I'm aiming this at people who have only scratched the surface of codec/wrapper land.
Please also note that this is aimed entirely at my specific post production facility the PAL international market using Final Cut Pro, so North America should ignore any mention of frame rates.
Looking forward to hearing what fellow editors/engineers think.
Cheers!
