Abstract:
Encoding and decoding is accomplished herein using a multi-reference picture buffer. Decoding includes receiving an encoded video stream, determining an expected error value representing possible frame errors, decoding a plurality of reference frames from the video stream, adding each of the plurality of reference frames to the reference picture buffers up to a maximum number of reference picture buffers, and determining an encoded video stream error value representing actual frame errors based on the decoded plurality of reference frames. If the encoded video stream error value is greater than the decoded expected error value, an error is signaled.
Abstract:
Object-based intra-prediction encoding may include generating, by a processor in response to instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium, an encoded block of a current frame of a video stream by encoding a current block from the current frame, including the encoded block in an output bitstream, and outputting or storing the output bitstream. Encoding the current block may include identifying a first spatial portion of the current block, wherein the first spatial portion includes a first pixel from the current block and omits a second pixel from the current block, encoding the first pixel using a first intra-prediction mode, and encoding the second pixel using a second intra-prediction mode, wherein the second intra-prediction mode differs from the first intra-prediction mode.
Abstract:
Encoding and decoding is accomplished herein using a multi-reference picture buffer. Reference frames are assigned to reference picture buffers when used for encoding and are identified with picture IDs unique relative to other picture IDs currently associated with the reference picture buffers. The maximum picture number used as the picture ID can be based on a number of reference picture buffers available to encode and decode the frames plus a value based on an expected error rate. The picture IDs can be assigned based on a least recently used policy. When a reference frame is no longer needed for encoding and decoding, a picture ID number associated with the reference frame can be released for re-assignment to a new reference frame.
Abstract:
Blocks of a frame of a video stream can be encoded using lossless intra-prediction encoding. The compression ratio of lossless intra-prediction encoding can be improved by performing lossy encoding on the intra-predicted residual. The encoded residual is then decoded and the reconstructed residual is subtracted from the original residual. The resulting difference residual is encoded using lossless encoding and included in the output bitstream along with the lossy encoded residual, permitting the block to be decoded with no loss at a decoder.
Abstract:
A method includes performing, by a microprocessor of a computing device, a coding to obtain a residual of a residual data block from an original data block. The method includes pre-defining a default order of symbols in the residual data block. The method includes re-ordering the symbols in the residual data block in an order other than the default order, such that a first set of most frequently used symbols are in a first location and a second set of least frequently used symbols are in a second location, producing a multi-symbol run-length code based on a group of symbols from the first set of most frequently used symbols, and detecting the second set of least frequently used symbols based on the multi-symbol run-length code.
Abstract:
The subject disclosure relates to managing windows in communications between a client device and a host device. It includes obtaining display information for a host device in response to a communication request from a client device, determining, based on the display information for the host device, a primary window to provide for display at the client device and identifying content associated with the primary window. The disclosure further includes determining display specifications of the client device, wherein the display specifications comprise at least one of display size, display type or content download settings and providing the identified content associated with the primary window for display on the client device according to the display specifications of the client device.
