Revision as of 03:07, 4 December 2012
Several versions of Indeo codec were developed by Intel Corporation, starting in 1992, and the latest versions (video versions 4 & 5, and audio version 2.5) are now made available by Ligos Corporation, which acquired the technology in 2000. Indeo was one of the first codecs allowing full-speed video playback without using hardware acceleration. Indeo Video Codec, Version 3 used vector quantization. Indeo Video Codec, Versions 4 & 5 use wavelet compression.
The Ligos website states that Indeo, meaning the Ligos Indeo Codecs package, is not supported for use with Microsoft's Vista or Windows 7 operating systems, or any Apple Mac operating systems.
The Ligos Indeo Support page reports inconsistent bundling of an Indeo Version 5 codec by Microsoft in versions of Windows XP, Vista, and 7.
