In this paper, we address the problem of delivery of image and multimedia services on bandwidth deficient wire and wireless networks for E-learning. Became exponential growth in the volume of image and multimedia limits the ability of companies to manage this data, image and multimedia and control effectively, and with continued high storage costs make the companies having problems retrieving image and multimedia. This research aims to address these items discussion and analysis: concepts of image/video compression, the characteristics of image/video compression, the benefits and constraints of the use of image/video compression technique for E-learning lecture videos. Also, a efficient image and video compression technique is presented as a tool, which may be used in E-learning systems.
