motion vector
Last modified: Monday, March 12, 2007 

In video editing motion vectors are used to compress video by storing the changes to an image from one frame to the next. The process is a bi-dimensional pointer that communicates to the decoder how much left or right and up or down, the prediction macroblock is located from the position of the macroblock in the reference frame or field.

Perceptual Coding: How Mp3 Compression Works
The requirement that encoded video and audio must be retrievable from a medium delivering only 1.5 million bits per second dictated that one of the principal concerns of this document was data compression, since the transmission of uncompressed audio and video streams would require many more bits per second.
