METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR VIDEO COMPRESSION

摘要

The present invention provides a method, apparatus and computer program product for video compression. The technology includes features wherein video content is initially obtained and subsequently separated into picture content and audio content. The picture content is separated into a frame by frame configuration, and a frame type for compression is determined for each of these frames. A frame is filtered and segmented into two or more portions, wherein each portion is indicative of a desired quantization for use during the encoding process. Each portion of the frame is subsequently encoded according to the respective desired quantization. Encoded picture content is generated and includes each encoded portion of a frame and its respective desired quantization. This encoded picture content is interleaved with the encoded audio content, thereby resulting in the compression of the video content. Upon reversal of this sequence of tasks will enable the substantial recreation of the video content for subsequent presentation.
