No, let's try this another way.

Let's say you have an original video stream that consists
of - gee, I don't know - let's say 1920 x 1080 pixel
frames that come at you at a rate of 30 per second.

That would be 1920 x 1080 x 30 pixels per second, right?

Working out the above, we could say it's 62.2 million pixels
per second.

Now let's say that we compress this into a data stream which
has an average rate of - again, just to pick a number completely
at random - 19.39 Mbits/second.

On average, how many bits per pixel of the original
video stream does that compressed stream give you?
