V-Nova introduces new codec 'Perseus' that claims is 2-3x better than h265
http://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php...broadband.html
http://www.v-nova.com/en/products-and-technology.html I am rather skeptical of this to say the least. Some of the companies they have been working with include Sky TV, Intel and Broadcom. |

Doesn't seem too crazy to really be a good april fools. Companies have claimed this before, and then just failed to deliver.

Searches on the Web reveal talk about V-Nova an Perseus well before today, so this is certainly not an April fools.
However, I am not sure if releasing this now is such a good idea, when everyone can easily be fooled into thinking this indeed is an April fools. Not sure what they were thinking. |

Sounds like marketing bs to me...just read the 1st line from the webpage :
Code:
PERSEUS® compresses significantly better than existing codecs (e.g., J2K, h.264/AVC or h.265/HEVC). |

I have been secretly developing a new codec, that uses a fixed database size of most common images, so called neverland® technology and calculates deltas from there using C frames (This are b-splined interpolations based on psycho-visual perception®), it beats h.266 by about 120% and Perseus by about 121334378573849%, currently there are secret tests going on with <deleted> on <deleted> by <deleted>.

Place Perseus in the collective comparison of quality > http://xooyoozoo.github.io/yolo-octo-bugfixes/#addpsy
Also expect Daala, NGIV, VP10 |

Even if we assume it's not an april fools joke, this still reminds me of the wild claims ON2 made about their codecs. When we were able to try their codecs, we found out that really nothing is true about their claims. Until we can test this codec and verify that there is at least a tiny bit of truth in the stuff said on their home page, i don't expect anything from this codec.

So that line basically tells nothing interesting about their codec. Last edited by vivan; 3rd April 2015 at 03:47. |

If you could read English words, such that you could read out those words aloud, but had no inkling of what they meant, you probably wouldn't be able read the paragraph too well, I'm sure most people reading that paragraph could read it at normal speed and know what it said, if the words were in a different order it would have been very confusing. |

Which doesn't exist.
The meme text was specifically constructed for readability. The Matt Davis page linked at the bottom of the Wikipedia article provides some counter-examples as well as his thoughts on the relevant science. |

Current standards have squeezed most of the theoretical blood out of video; they're chasing smaller and more difficult gains each cycle now. It seems like the only way future standards will ever wildly improve is by getting serious about grain synthesis (which MPEG is loathe to do because it's hard to measure) and long term references (which eats memory and processor cycles for breakfast). |
