The video coding standards are being developed to satisfy the requirements of applications for various purposes, better picture quality, higher coding efficiency, and more error robustness.The new international video coding standard H.264 /AVC aims at having significant improvements in coding efficiency, and error robustness in comparison with the previous standards such as MPEG-2, H261, H263,and H264.Video stream needs to be processed from several steps in order to encode and decode the video such that it is compressed efficiently with available limited resources of hardware and software.All advantages and disadvantages of available algorithms should be known to implement a codec to accomplish final requirement.The purpose of this project is to implement all basic building blocks of H.264 video encoder and decoder.The significance of the project is the inclusion of all components required to encode and decode a video in MatLab .
