System and method to optimize video performance in wireless-dock with ultra-high definition display

摘要

Methods, devices, and computer program products for using raw bitstreams and lossless distributed source coded (DSC) video to optimize video performance in wireless dock with ultra-high definition displays. In one aspect, a method of transmitting a video stream from a transmitting device to a wireless video display is described. The method includes determining a resolution of the wireless video display and a native resolution of a video stream, as well as a connection speed between the transmitting device and the wireless video display. Based on this information, the method selects a video compression format, choosing between raw video, DSC video, and high-efficiency video coded video. The method further transmits the video stream in the selected video compression format from the transmitting device to the wireless video display.
