Editing VC-1 (section)

==Other implementations==
Due to its origins in Microsoft's WMV9 codec, the most popular implementations of VC-1 encoders have so far been done by Microsoft, though third-party implementations exist as well. Sonic Cinevision PSE, a professional VC-1 encoding tool used predominantly in [[HD DVD]] and [[Blu-ray]] encoding, is a commercial version of Microsoft's PEP (Parallel Encoder) encoding tool and VC-1 Analyzer tool. Microsoft owns the code development whereas [[Sonic Solutions]] owns the sales and distribution. Microsoft also provides a separate VC-1 Encoder SDK which allows any company or software developer to integrate VC-1 encoding into their applications.
Non-Microsoft VC-1 implementations (based entirely on the SMPTE specifications) have been done by [[Ericsson Television]] and [[MainConcept]].<ref>{{cite web | title = MainConcept VC-1 Codec Package | publisher = [[MainConcept]]| url = http://www.mainconcept.com/products/sdks/video/vc-1.html | access-date = September 24, 2010}}</ref> The [[FFmpeg]] project includes a [[free software|free]] VC-1 decoder.<ref name="FFmpeg VC-1 Google 2006 SoC"/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ffmpeg.org/|title=FFmpeg Home/News|publisher=FFmpeg|access-date=29 October 2010|date=March 9, 2007|quote=Nine months without news but with heavy development.
