Block and frame skipping decides which image regions, blocks or frames in a video frame or series of frames should be encoded. Block skipping detects in advance which of the blocks in a video frame will produce little or no bits, so that the encoder can skip the encoding process for these blocks. Block skipping uses an iterative procedure to determine the optimal energy threshold value for each image frame. All the image blocks whose pixel energy is below the optimal threshold for the frame are skipped. Frame skipping predicts a distortion or image quality value for each frame. If some frames have a predicted image quality smaller than a preset value, these frames are allocated more bits and if, as a result, too few bits are left for future frames, the latter frames are skipped. This selective frame skipping guarantees that the quality of the non-skipped frames is above the preset value.
