Because they needed tools.

to encode, to do fansubbing.

One of the most amazing open source projects for subtitles is called AEG Sub.

And it's a subtitle.

It's done for anime, for South Asian and Japanese languages.

Yeah, the way you produce it is not, you mostly produce it like on screens, right?

Since a bit of time and you have all those gradients, right?

In colors, because they are very easy to produce digitally, very complex to produce in real life.

And the subtitles also are very complex because you need to have often the Japanese and then you need to have the diacritics, right?

What we call the oribi, right?

Which is the hiragana and the katakana for the kanji.

And then, because of course, so that you have the official kanji,

subtitling, but you also need the English subtitles or the French subtitles because you want to learn that, right?

And there were so many things crazy on subtitles.

And we had like crazy samples on subtitles that we've seen all around.

So this is an important part of the culture, but also because there was no official offering.

There was no way of doing that.

All of those codecs, since AV1,

MPEG-2 video are the same concepts.

The same concept about inverse transform, about intra-prediction, motion composite, entropy coding, all of them.
