The H.264 compression standard is highly efficient and can significantly reduce bandwidth and storage requirements compared to Motion JPEG. This is because H.264 uses both intra-frame and inter-frame compression, which reduces the amount of data needed to represent video by eliminating redundant information between successive frames. Axis Network Video documentation states that H.264 can reduce the required bandwidth and storage by up to 50% or more in typical surveillance scenarios, making it an advantageous choice for video compression in surveillance systems.

A seems off. Motion shouldn't affect storage that much, right?

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think the advantage is definitely about reducing bandwidth and storage, which points to option C.

I feel like option D might be correct since intra-frame coding helps with network issues, but I need to double-check that.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about H.264 reducing CPU load. Is that option B?

I think option C sounds familiar because we discussed how H.264 is more efficient than Motion JPEG in terms of storage.
