270 Glossary Settings Modifiers - feature accessible through the Project window that enables you to modify the base setting of a single file in a batch without affecting the settings of other files that are using the same base setting. Sharpen - edge-sharpening filter that mostly affects edges and is less detrimental to encoding than a conventional sharpening filter. SMIL - short for Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language - pronounced "smile." This language enables the synchronization of media and actions within a Web page in addition to video and audio. For example, SMIL can control the loading of multiple movies at given times, URL page flips, transitions, text tracks and more. Sorenson Video Codec - high-quality, low-bandwidth QuickTime video codec. Source Movie - original movie to be encoded. Spatial Compression - compression method that removes redundant data within any given image. For example, a field of blue in a picture would be stored as one large blue area rather than many individual blue pixels. Spikes - see Data Rate Spikes. Sprite Track - QuickTime track made of small graphic elements that have position and time information associated with them. These elements are called sprites. A bouncing ball is a good use of a sprite track - only the ball and its location are stored at any given time instead of a series of bitmaps that describe each whole frame. Static Mask - a feature that composites defined areas of an image across frames to improve temporal compression. Store and Forward - alternate term for On Demand.
