    摘要: A method of encoding a sequence of video images is described. The method receives the sequence of video images. The method iteratively examines different encoding solutions for the sequence of video images to identify an encoding solution that optimizes image quality while meeting a target bit rate and satisfying a set of constraints regarding flow of encoded data through an input buffer of a hypothetical reference decoder for decoding the encoded video sequence. The iterative examining includes, for each encoding solution, determining whether the hypothetical reference decoder underflows while processing the encoding solution for any set of images within the video sequence.

    摘要: A novel multi-pass encoding method that encodes several images (e.g., several frames of a video sequence) is described. The method iteratively performs an encoding operation that encodes these images. The encoding operation is based on a nominal quantization parameter, which the method uses to compute quantization parameter for the images. During several different iterations of the encoding operation, the method uses several different nominal quantization parameters. The method stops its iterations when it reaches a terminating criterion (e.g., it identifies an acceptable encoding of the images).

    摘要: Some embodiments provide an architecture for establishing a multi-participant conference. This architecture has one participant's computer in the conference act as a central content distributor for the conference. The central distributor receives data (e.g., video and/or audio streams) from the computer of each other participant, and distributes the received data to the computers of all participants. In some embodiments, the central distributor receives A/V data from the computers of the other participants. From such received data, the central distributor of some embodiments generates composite data (e.g., composite image data and/or composite audio data) that the central distributor distributes back to the participants. The central distributor in some embodiments can implement a heterogeneous audio/video conference. In such a conference, different participants can participate in the conference differently. For instance, different participants might use different audio or video codecs. Moreover, in some embodiments, one participant might participate in only the audio aspect of the conference, while another participant might participate in both audio and video aspects of the conference.
