[Acronym] for __V__ariable __B__it__R__ate
-A type of
encoding that has a
fixed quality
and therefore
varies how much
bandwidth is being
used to store
data as the input information varies in compressibility, as opposed to
[CBR] (Constant Bit Rate) encoding which has a fixed bandwidth and varies the quality
.
+An
encoding approach
that keeps quality (according to some sort of metric)
fixed and varies the amount of
bandwidth used to transmit the
data as the input information varies in compressibility.
