/*!\defgroup vp8 VP8
 * \ingroup codecs
 * VP8 is vpx's newest video compression algorithm that uses motion
 * compensated prediction, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coding of the
 * prediction error signal and context dependent entropy coding techniques
 * based on arithmatic principles. It features:
 *  - YUV 4:2:0 image format
 *  - Macro-block based coding (16x16 luma plus two 8x8 chroma)
 *  - 1/4 (1/8) pixel accuracy motion compensated prediction
 *  - 4x4 DCT transform
 *  - 128 level linear quantizer
 *  - In loop deblocking filter
 *  - Context-based entropy coding
