 | MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3. Compression scheme used to transfer audio files
via the Internet and store in portable players and digital audio servers.
|
| MPEG Layer 3. An new standard for audio compression. It is capable of
10:1 compression with no noticeable loss in quality. MP3s have become a
popular way to distribute CD quality music on the Internet.
|
| MP3 is an acronym for MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 audio layer 3. MP3 is the file
extension for MPEG audio layer 3. Layer 3 is one of three coding schemes
(layer 1, layer 2 and layer 3) for the compression of audio signals. Layer 3
uses perceptual audio coding and psychoacoustic compression to remove all
superfluous information (more specifically, the redundant and irrelevant
parts of a sound signal. The stuff the human ear doesn't hear anyway). ...
|
| (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3) Is the standard technology and format for
compressing a sound sequence into a very small file while preserving the
original level of sound quality when it is played.
|
| MP3 is an acronym for MPEG layer 3, which is a compressed audio format.
A compression ratio of up to 12 to 1 compression is possible, which produces
high sound quality.
|
| music, file format> (filename extension “.mp3”) A digital audio
compression algorithm that achieves a compression of factor of about twelve
while preserving sound quality. MP3 files can be played using software
available for most operating systems.
|
| MP3 audio coding shrinks down the original sound data from a CD by a
factor of 12, without losing sound quality.
|
| MP3 stands for 'MPEG-2 Layer 3', which is a compression standard
developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (http://mpeg.telecomitalialab.com),
a joint committee of the ISO and IEC, specifically for encoding digital
audio in a space-efficient manner.
|
| MPEG Audio Layer-3 - A widely used technology for the compression and
decompression of music. Music is stored as an MP3 file.
|
| MP3 is an audio file format, based on MPEG (Moving Picture Expert Group)
technology. It creates very small files suitable for streaming or
downloading over the Internet.
|
| Based on MPEG layer 2 and layer 3 compression, mp3 is a streamable audio
file format that has enabled many new digital audio applications, and
stimulated the development of newer improved streaming formats.
|
| A compressed digital audio format. MPEG (Motion Pictures Experts Group)
Layer 3 Audio compression.
|
| The most popular CODEC (for compressor-decompressor) software that
shrinks music into digital files small enough for transmission over the
Internet. The MP3 format strips away layers of inaudible sounds, compresses
what is left, then decompresses those same files for listening on a computer
or audio player. MP3 is "open source" software, in the public domain and
freely available on the Internet.
|
| A popular audio compression standard for Internet delivery of sound
files.
|
| What has become the standard file format for the compression of music.
Because MP3s significantly compress songs, it is a perfect candidate for
distributing on the internet. It is clearly a standard online format and has
resulted in the creation of dozens of software tools (like Napster and
Gnutella) that encourage MP3 sharing/copying via the web.
|
| The popular name for the MPEG3 compression format. MP3 is the most
popular form of transporting audio around the World Wide Web. MP3 files can
be imported into Live Channel for streaming.
|
| (MPEG Audio Layer 3) An audio compression technology that is part of the
MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 specifications. MP3 compresses CD-quality sound by factor
twelve, while still maintaining high fidelity. MP3 music files are played
via software or a handheld device. MP3 has made it feasible to download
quality audio from the Web very quickly.
|
| An abbreviation of MPEG Audio-Layer 3. This is a compression algorithm
developed by the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany and later standardised by
the MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group) that permits audio files to be
highly compressed and yet retain excellent levels of quality. ...
|
| MP3 is an acronym for MPEG-1 (or MPEG-2) Layer 3 audio encoding (it is
not an acronym for MPEG3). MP3 is a popular compression format used for
audio files on computers and portable devices. The compression in MP3 works
on the basis of a "psychoacoustic model" which means that parts of the audio
that human ears cannot detect are discarded by the encoder. Although this is
a LOSSY process, it can yield very high quality audio files are relatively
high compression rates. ...
|
| An increasingly popular way to store audio in electronic format. The MP3
format compresses audio files in such a way that the file size is relatively
small, but the song sounds nearly perfect. You can identify MP3 files
because they end in the ".mp3" extension. Typically 1 MB is equal to one
minute of music or several minutes for spoken word/audiobooks.
|
| MPEG Layer 3 Format for compressing audio only defined in both MPEG-1
and MPEG-2. Commonly used for digital music played on personal computers
(MP3 songs) but also targeted at applications such as digital phones and new
hardware MP3 players intended as Discman or car CD player replacements.
|
| A way of compressing sound files on a computer to make them much
smaller.
|
| MPEG-1/2 Audio Layer 3. Audio compression algorithm, originally
developed for use in conjunction with film and video.
|
| A file format for sounds. Popular for transferring music via the
Internet.
|
| a audio file, which offers near CD-quality sound at a high rate of
compression, resulting in files ten times smaller than the original.
|
| MP3 is a popular digital audio encoding and lossy compression format. It
was designed to greatly reduce the amount of data (10:1 compression is
common) required to represent audio, yet still sound like a faithful
reproduction of the original uncompressed audio to most listeners. In
popular usage, MP3 also refers to files of sound or music recordings stored
in the MP3 format on computers.
