<p>A video coding method includes for each target image portion to be encoded, selecting a preferred one of a set of encoding modes by optimizing a function comprising an estimate of distortion and a measure of bit rate required to encode the target image portion, the encoding modes comprising at least an intra frame mode and an inter frame mode; and transmitting the encoded video stream over a lossy channel. The estimate of distortion is based on a contribution from possible new loss over the channel comprising possible loss of the target block, and on a contribution from possible past loss over the channel comprising possible loss in a history of the encoded video stream upon which decoding of the target portion depends. The method includes accumulating the contribution from past loss over time, such that the estimate of distortion grows irrespective of the contribution from new loss.</p> |
