CROSS-CODEC ENCODING OPTIMIZATIONS FOR VIDEO TRANSCODING

摘要

A method for sharing the motion estimation and mode decision results and decisions of one codec with another codec is disclosed. A video is received to be transcoded into a plurality of different output encodings of a plurality of different codecs. Each codec has a different video encoding format. A shared motion estimation and a shared mode decision processing of the video are performed. One or more results of the shared mode decision processing shared across the plurality of different codecs are used to encode the video into the plurality of different output encodings of the plurality of different codecs.
