Per-image forward error correction

摘要

Some embodiments provide a method for encoding digital video. The method receives a digital video image. The method encodes the digital video image. The method generates error correction information for the encoded digital video image using only data from the encoded digital video image. The method transmits the generated error correction information with the encoded digital video image. In some embodiments, the method determines a level of error protection for the encoded digital video image based on an image type of the encoded digital video image.
