<p>The invention relates to a method and device for encoding digital video data corresponding to an original sequence of images and available in the form of a video stream consisting of successive pictures which are either INTRA pictures or INTER pictures. The INTRA pictures are called I-pictures and encoded by means of a so-called INTRA mode without any reference to any past or future picture. The INTER pictures are either monodirectionally predicted pictures, called P-pictures and encoded with reference to a past or future reference picture which is an INTRA or INTER picture, or bidirectionally predicted pictures, called B-pictures and encoded with reference to one or more reference picture(s). The INTRA pictures themselves comprise either I-pictures placed at the beginning of a new group of pictures corresponding to a scene change, where no temporal redundancy is available, and called scene change I-pictures, or I-pictures placed in other locations, where some temporal redundancy is available, and called refresh pictures. According to the invention, the method is characterized in that, before being quantized and encoded in INTRA mode, said INTRA refresh pictures are replaced by an INTER picture having quality and artefacts substantially similar to those of the last encoded INTER picture(s).</p> |
