LEAD MCMW Encoder (3.0)

The LEAD MCMW Encoder Filter is a DirectShow® encoder that can compress video data using the state of the art wavelet based compression algorithm. This compression algorithm provides a superior compression performance in comparison to the old DCT based compression algorithm like Motion JPEG. At the same time, it can still do real time compression. Because it is an intra-frame compression (no inter-frame dependencies), the MCMW Encoder is an ideal candidate for video editing (quick random access to every frame for searching), video conferencing, remote monitoring and video storage. The compressed video data can be stored inside AVI or Ogg files (with or without Audio).

The compression options for the encoder can be set manually through the encoder property page. It can also be set programmatically through the interface.
