20080205520 | Method of coding a video signal - The invention relates to methods and apparatuses for encoding and decoding of a video sequence. In connection with encoding/decoding a video sequence it is desirable to increase the video quality without having to increase the bit-rate for the encoded video too much, thereby still providing a bit-efficient representation of the video. If multiple descriptions of the video sequence is used the invention improves the video quality without any increase of the bit-rate. According to the invention, this is achieved by using two or more coding units for encoding the same video sequence, wherein the encoding units perform their encoding operations displaced in time in relation to each other. Correspondingly, two or more decoding units are used for decoding the same video sequence, wherein the decoding units perform their decoding operations displaced in time in relation to each other. | 08-28-2008 |

20120287986 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING ADAPTIVE MEDIA OPTIMIZATION - A method and system for providing adaptive media optimization are described. Aspects of the invention modify video encoding and network transmission settings to optimize the user viewing experience. The system and method sample video content to determine various content features of the video. The system and method use the identified content features in conjunction with network statistics to modify encoding settings and network transmission options to ensure a minimum of interruption in the transmitted video. Previously generated lookup tables ensure efficient mapping of video content and network conditions to encoding and transmission settings. | 11-15-2012 |
20140079123 | INDEPENDENT TEMPORALLY CONCURRENT VIDEO STREAM CODING - Implementations of independent temporally concurrent video stream coding may include generating a sequence of encoded frames by encoding a plurality of input frames, wherein encoding the plurality of input frames may include generating a first plurality of encoded frames based on the plurality of input frames, the first plurality of encoded frames including a first plurality of intra-coded frames and a first plurality of inter-coded frames, and independently generating a second plurality of encoded frames based on the plurality of input frames, wherein the second plurality of encoded frames includes a second plurality of intra-coded frames and a second plurality of inter-coded frames, such that the first plurality of encoded frames and the second plurality of encoded frames are temporally concurrent, and such that the intra-coded frames from the second plurality of intra-coded frames are temporally nonconcurrent with the intra-coded frames from the first plurality of intra-coded frame. | 03-20-2014 |
