<p>In an example, a dynamic codec allocation method is provided. The method includes receiving a plurality of datastreams and determining a respective codec loading factor for each of the datastreams. The datastreams are assigned to codecs, in order by respective codec loading factor, starting with the highest respective codec loading factor. Initially, the datastreams are assigned to a hardware codec, until the hardware codec is loaded to substantially maximum capacity. If the hardware codec is loaded to substantially maximum capacity, the remaining datastreams are assigned to a software codec. As new datastreams are received, the method repeats, and previously-assigned datastreams can be reassigned from a hardware codec to a software codec, and vice versa, based on their relative codec loading factors.</p> |
