<p class=level_1_indented>MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) version 1 is a widely-supported media compression standard.&nbsp; MPEG 1 helps when you want to distribute your video files.&nbsp; You can play MPEG movies on almost any players such as settop players, PCs, PocketPC, etc.</p>

<p class=level_1_indented>It produces larger files and lower quality video than some of the newer compression systems, such as MPEG 4.</p>

<p class=level_1_indented>NTSC is the video standard used in United States, Japan, Canada, and most of the Latin America.&nbsp; PAL (or SECAM, which is very similar to PAL) is used in UK, Europe, Australia, and most of Asia.&nbsp; Constant Bit Rate (CBR) MPEG 1 files use the same amount of disk space to store each second of audio and video.&nbsp; Variable Bit Rate (VBR) compression lets complicated video and audio use more space, but reduce the space used for simple segments.&nbsp; This lets the quality be higher without making files larger.</p>
