     13  * VP8 is a video compression algorithm that uses motion
     14  * compensated prediction, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coding of the
     15  * prediction error signal and context dependent entropy coding techniques
     16  * based on arithmetic principles. It features:
     17  *  - YUV 4:2:0 image format
     18  *  - Macro-block based coding (16x16 luma plus two 8x8 chroma)
     19  *  - 1/4 (1/8) pixel accuracy motion compensated prediction
     20  *  - 4x4 DCT transform
     21  *  - 128 level linear quantizer
     22  *  - In loop deblocking filter
     23  *  - Context-based entropy coding
