ABSTRACT
The MPEG-4 standard is complex. At the level of the video coding, it offers two sets of coding tools, one providing an objects approach and the other allowing for an extremely efficient debit reduction. The Advanced Video Coding is an improvement of the video coding. However, the MPEG-4 is not only an audio and video coding standard. It defines systems for the design, composition, distribution and use of the various media objects. Various applications in the field of the multimedia production and transport have thus been made possible.
