The LEAD H264 Decoder (DMO) is a DirectX Media Object decoder that can decompress video compressed by any H264 codeccodec A COmpressor combined with a DECompressor, or encoder Also known as compressor, this is a module or algorithm to compress data. Playing that data back requires a decompressor, or decoder. and a decoder, which allows you to both compress and decompress that same data.. Note that there are four DMO encoders and only one DMO decoder because the DMO decoder can decode data encoded by any codec. This DMO decoder is required to play Windows Media files (a.k.a. ASF files) containing H264 video in Windows Media Player.
