VIDEO ENCODING DEVICE, VIDEO ENCODING METHOD AND VIDEO ENCODING PROGRAM

摘要

A video encoding device includes a re-encoding picture type judgment unit which judges whether a picture is to be taken as a reference picture or not in a subsequent re-encoding process, and a refresh unit sets no refreshed unit area in the picture when the picture is judged by the re-encoding picture type judgment unit to be taken as a non-reference picture in the subsequent re-encoding process, but sets, when the picture is judged to be taken as a reference picture, a refreshed unit area in the picture to be taken as a reference picture so as to include an area corresponding to a refreshed unit area which should have been set in a picture to be taken as a non-reference picture.
