The MainConcept® VC-1 Codec Package offers fast encoding and decoding speeds in the Simple, Main and Advanced Profiles, as well as all levels supported by the standard. The corresponding VC-1 Decoder is a software-only decoding solution for SMPTE 421M-2006 (VC-1) video streams. The filter can process VC-1 video streams produced by the MainConcept MPEG Demultiplexer or any other compliant filter, such as the Microsoft ASF Reader.
