hi

I'm back to threading xvid after a week or so writing reports and have a few
(probably basic) questions about the variables and bitstream.

I'm kinda confused by mv16, mvs[] and pmvs[]. which one of these are the
differential prediction that is written to the bitstream and thus the one i
will need to recalculate? are all 4 values of the array written or just a
specific one?

i know these are probably simple questions but they are kinda confusing me.

also has anyone got a url for the actually iso mpeg4 standard? this would
help me with some of these questions i would guess.

Thanks

Tom
