Does Mosquito HDMI handle MPEG-4 compressed signal?
Mosquito HDMI will filter any image, weather they coded MPEG2 or MPEG4. Random and mosquito noise are similar in nature between MPEG2 and MPEG4. Mosquito HDMI will be effective for both types of compression, or any DCT based compression scheme. The various Mosquito, Mosquito HDMI and Flea controls allow the units to adapt to a more or less compressed signal. Adjust to your liking. The current BAR (Block Artifact Reducer, v 1.06 in Mosquito HDMI, v 3.07 in Mosquito and v 1.03 in Flea) should be less optimal because of the variable block coding size of MPEG4. In the MPEG4 stream, if the block structure for 8×8 block is apparent, the BAR should kick in and clean blocks. If, for an unknown reason, the BAR does not clean properly, it can be turned off. Follow the release notes for updates for a BAR version that also addresses MPEG4 blocking scheme.
