Good, Better, and Best Compression Settings

Question: What's the difference between the Good, Better and Best compression settings, and how do they relate to scalability?
Indeo® video interactive has three selectable compression modes: good, better, and best. The setting is independent of scalability; it controls the compression algorithm. The best compression mode gives the best quality video but requires a more powerful processor for playback. Given adequate processor power and system resources, quality improves significantly from good to best compression settings.
