LEAD's MPEG-4 video codec is a multimedia compressor / decompressor that registers into the Windows® collection of multimedia drivers and integrates with any application using DirectShow. Existing video software, such as Windows® Media Player® and Ulead Media Studio®, can utilize this codec to play, create and edit industry standard (ISO/IEC 14496-2) MPEG-4 streams.

What does Encoder and Decoder mean?

A codec can consist of two components, an encoder and a decoder. The encoder performs the compression function and the decoder performs the decompression function.
