MPEG-4 is a method of defining compression of audio and visual (AV) digital data. It was introduced in late 1998 and designated a standard for a group of audio and video coding formats and related technology agreed upon by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) (ISO/IEC JTC1/SC29/WG11) under the formal standard ISO/IEC 14496 – Coding of audio-visual objects. Uses of MPEG-4 include compression of AV data for web (streaming media) and CD distribution, voice (telephone, videophone) and broadcast television applications.

MPEG-4 absorbs many of the features of MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 and other related standards, adding new features such as (extended) VRML support for 3D rendering, object-oriented composite files (including audio, video and VRML objects), support for externally-specified Digital Rights Management and various types of interactivity. AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) was standardized as an adjunct to MPEG-2 (as Part 7) before MPEG-4 was issued.

MPEG-4 is still a developing standard and is divided into a number of parts. Companies promoting MPEG-4 compatibility do not always clearly state which "part" level compatibility they are referring to. The key parts to be aware of are MPEG-4 part 2 (including Advanced Simple Profile, used by codecs such as DivX, Xvid, Nero Digital and 3ivx and by Quicktime 6) and MPEG-4 part 10 (MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 or Advanced Video Coding, used by the x264 encoder, by Nero Digital AVC, by Quicktime 7, and by high-definition video media like Blu-ray Disc).

Super Indian is an Indian comic book character, one of a number of titles published by Raj Comics.

Super Indian is actually Aman, born to the fictional terrorist chief Ahankari, as a clone. Ahankari considered cloning himself after suffering a near fatal encounter with William Boother, an infiltrator. He selected Dr. Heathrow to create a clone of himself in every aspect. The clone grew to adulthood very rapidly due to accelerated cloned genes. A host of super villains was selected to impart training and equipment to the clone in order to make him a perfect successor to the terrorist leader. At this point, Ahankari's father, fearing that the clone would also turn out evil like his son, arranged for the Indian mystic "Rudraksh Baba" to take charge of his grandson. After some initial resistance by the clone, Rudraksh Baba mystically purged all evil from the clone and concentrated it under the mark of a Trident, carried by Lord Shiva. This process gave rise to another side effect - whenever the clone sensed evil, his skin would turn blue. Rudraksh baba instructed the clone, now known as Aman (Peace) to live the life of a hero, donning the ceremonial Indian "dhoti" as a mark of his embraced mysticism. Aman took up the name Super Indian and went on to learn heroics from various Indian Superheroes from the Raj Comics universe. He defends India & the high tech Metro City, his base of operations. he now protects the Metro City. He calls all the members of P.O.E.M (Protectors Of Earth & Mankind) his uncles and aunt as he has no real relative in this world, and looks up to them as his guardians.
