: Features like those proposed in B061 helped H.264 achieve nearly double the compression efficiency of previous standards (like MPEG-2), enabling the rise of high-definition streaming and Blu-ray discs.

: You can still find technical summaries of these early building blocks in the ITU-T archives . Joint Video Team (MPEG+ITU) Document b061.mp4

This proposal, submitted by in February 2002 to the Joint Video Team (JVT) , focused on improving compression efficiency by adapting how motion vectors (the data that tells a video player how objects move between frames) are stored and transmitted.
