Image sequences are advantageously recoded based on an evaluation of complexities before and after trans-coding of the images. Initially, information is extracted representing at least the complexity of recoding each image. A complexity ratio is calculated in accordance with the complexities of images recoded previously using the aforementioned mode to the complexities of the initial coding of said images. After smoothing the complexity ratio undergoes updating. Each image is recoded according to the mode by estimating the complexity of each image to be recoded as the product of the complexity of the initial coding of the image by the smoothed complexity ratio for the mode.

A block based signal compression system, as for example for coding video signal, and employing quantization of codewords or transform coefficients includes circuitry for adaptively controlling the quantization. Adaptivity of quantization is made a function of several parameters. One parameter is coding cost or bandwidth, wherein coding cost is generated on a macroblock basis but averaged over a window of macroblocks centered on a macroblock currently to be quantized. Another parameter is block or macroblock motion attributes, wherein block motion attribut values are used to modify the quantizing function.

The invention relates to a method for coding a sequence of images divided into blocks, comprising the following steps for a current block:—selecting, for the current block, a coding mode in a set of coding modes that comprises at least two coding modes, and a transform in a set of transforms that comprises at least a first transform and a second transform; and—coding the current block according to the coding mode and the transform selected. The coding mode and the transform, themselves, are selected according to the following steps:—selecting the coding mode in the set of coding modes while using the first transform, and—selecting the transform in the set of transforms while using the coding mode selected.
