Systems and methods utilizing efficient video compression techniques for browsing of static image data

摘要

Embodiments include systems and methods that use video compression techniques when browsing web pages referencing static image data or video content. In non-limiting examples, this can include using modern video compression techniques when browsing web pages referencing compressed static image data to obtain increased efficiency in transmission and/or rendering of the static image data on a browser at a client device. In an embodiment, a system includes a browser that browses a received web page having a content identifier and an associated video compression data signature. The browser includes a decoder that decodes compressed video content associated with the content identifier in accordance with a type of video compression identified by the video compression data signature to obtain static image data.
