Welcome to the bgbtech_misc wiki!

Mostly still familiarizing myself with all this.

BTIC1x Codecs:

• BTIC1G
  • Older/Simpler byte-oriented low-complexity incremental codec.
  • Main use case is streaming video from robots.
    • It is more intended for low complexity rather than bitrate or quality.
    • It is mostly intended for incremental video streaming from ARM-based robot controllers.
• BTIC1H
  • Intended as a reasonably low-complexity codec for fast encode/decode.
  • It isn't intended for the best possible bitrate or image quality.
    • It was originally mostly intended as a replacement for BTIC1G in the same basic use-case.
    • However, the design seems to also work passably for screen-capture and other things.

Compression:

• BTLZA
  • An extended form of Deflate supporting larger windows and matches.
  • It is a backwards-compatible binary superset of Deflate.
  • It was intended as a compromise between Deflate and LZMA.
    • Speed closer to Deflate, but compression closer to LZMA.
    • Thus far mostly used in Huffman only mode.
