摘要： A video coding system and method for increasing a transmitted output bit rate of a video encoding system by altering the content of the bit stream. A video encoder may receive a coding mode signal from a computer application for coding source video data, the coding mode signal indicating a target bit rate having a risk factor related to transmission error associated to the target bit rate. The coded bitstream may be modified based on the risk factor indicated in the coding mode signal. A modified coded bitstream may be outputted at the target bit rate and at a reduced coding efficiency, and the channel may be tested for transmission errors. Based on the test results, a revised coding mode signal indicating the same target bit rate, but a revised risk factor may be provided. The coded bitstream may be revised by removing the modifications previously made to the coded bitstream and a revised coded bitstream having greater coding efficiency may be output at the target bit rate.

摘要： A scene-aware auto-exposure control process stabilizes changes in a camera's auto-exposure settings so as to reduce lighting and color flicker during image capture operations. A metric, referred to as the Modified Adjusted Luminance (MAL) metric, is defined to remain relatively constant as long as the lighting of the scene being captured remains relatively constant. Thus, scene changes such as an object moving into, out of, or around in a scene do not significantly affect the MAL metric's value and do not, therefore, trigger an exposure adjustment. Once the MAL metric indicates a scene's lighting is stable, the camera's auto-exposure operation may be suppressed. As long as incoming frames indicate a stable lighting condition (based on the MAL metric), auto-exposure operation may remain suppressed. When incoming frames result in a substantially different MAL over a specified number of frames, auto-exposure operation may be restored.
摘要翻译：场景感知自动曝光控制过程可稳定照相机自动曝光设置的变化，以减少图像拍摄过程中的照明和颜色闪烁。被称为修正调整亮度（MAL）度量的度量被定义为保持相对恒定，只要被捕获的场景的照明保持相对恒定。因此，诸如移动到场景中的，离开或在场景中的对象的场景改变不会显着影响MAL度量的值，因此不会触发曝光调整。一旦MAL指标表明场景的照明是稳定的，则可能会抑制相机的自动曝光操作。只要进入的帧指示稳定的照明条件（基于MAL度量），自动曝光操作可能仍然被抑制。当输入帧在指定数量的帧上导致基本上不同的MAL时，可以恢复自动曝光操作。

摘要： In a video coding system, an encoder may include a coding engine to predictively code input video, a decoder to reconstruct reference pictures generated by the coding engine, a reference picture cache to store the reconstructed reference pictures, a patch cache to store prediction patches generated from other sources, and a prediction search unit to search among the reference picture cache and the patch cache to generate prediction references for use by the coding engine while coding input video. The prediction patches may be assembled from a variety of sources including: predefined image content, reference pictures being evicted from the reference picture cache, image content of prior coding sessions and image data stored by applications on a common terminal where the encoder resides. A decoder may store prediction patches in its own patch cache for synchronous decoding.

摘要： A method and system are provided for decoding coded video data by turning off or not loading at least one functional unit or functional subunit of the decoder while decoding a portion of the coded video data. A schedule may be created prior to substantive decoding and then the schedule may be used to decode coded video data. The coded video data may be reordered based on the functional units or subunits the portions of the coded video data need for decoding. The portions of the coded video data are reordered into their original order in an output buffer after being decoded. The decoder may determine which functional units or subunits are needed for decoding based on administration information included with the coded video data. The decoder may decode portions of the coded video data in parallel.
