<p>The source encoder for video pictures described includes a preprocessing unit (PP) which supplies block-sequentially the data of a video picture. The video picture is then transferred to an encoding unit (C) via a controllable switch (S). The encoding unit includes inter alia a picture store and a controllable quantizer; it is followed by a buffer store (PS). A control unit (K) supervises the buffer store (PS) and controls in dependence on the filling level thereof the controllable switch (S), the encoding unit (C) and the quantizer included therein. In order to obtain a good picture quality, measures have been taken to ensure that the control unit (K) additionally controls the quantizer in dependence on the time elapsed after the maximum filling level of the buffer store (PS) has been reached and/or in dependence on the actual value of the quantization stepsize, such that during the entire operation the value of the quantization stepsize only passes through adjacent values.</p> |
