Video Codecs Projects

• MSU lossless video codec
  The best available free lossless video codec.
• MSU Screen Capture Lossless Codec
  The best available free screen capture video codec. This codec is intended for lossless compression of video taken from computer screen. It may be used for making software presentations, video lessons and tutorials, recording video from games etc.
• Video codecs comparisons main page
  Comparison of all main codecs.
• x264 Codec Improvement
  The analysis and improvement of one of the best video codecs of new standard MPEG4 AVC/H.264 has been performed by VideoGroup. Changes are made in initial parameters selection scheme. Improvement achieves up to 2dBs at low bitrates.

Public MSU video filters Here are available VirtualDub and AviSynth filters. For a given type of digital video filtration we typically develop a family of different algorithms and implementations. Generally there are also versions optimized for PC and hardware implementations (ASIC/FPGA/DSP). These optimized versions can be licensed to companies. Please contact us for details via video(at)graphics.cs.msu_ru.

Also we have internal researches. Please let us know via video(at)graphics.cs.msu_ru if you are interested in acquiring a license for such filters or making a custom R&D project on video processing, compression, computer vision. 3D Displays Video Generation 3D Displays Video Capturing Stereo Video Depth Map Generation Automatic Objects Segmentation Semiautomatic Objects Segmentation New Frame Rate Conversion New Deinterlacer MSU-Samsung Deinterlacing Project Digital TV Signal Enhancement Old Film Recovery Tuner TV Restore Panorama Video2Photo SuperResolution SuperPrecision MSU-Samsung image and video resampling MSU-Samsung Frame Rate Conversion Motion Phase filter Deshaker (video stabilization) Film Grain/Degrain filter Deblurring filter Video Content Search
