A group of 19 companies that own patents related to MPEG-4, which is a streaming video
technology aimed at wireless devices, said Thursday they have made significant progress in
discussions aimed at offering licensees a single patent license.
The group, known as M4VisualPHG, had created a member group called MPEG LA, LLC to
facilitate the discussions. Thursday that group reported what it called "substantial progress"
toward creation of a single license for application and device vendors.
The group set as a deadline of offering the single license by January 2002. The group said in a
statement that it hopes a single license will simplify and speed adoption of the technology.
