    摘要: A method of color saturation compensation in a video signal is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: processing a luminance signal component of the video signal; determining whether the processing of the luminance signal results in a change in chrominance saturation; if the step of determining reveals that the chrominance saturation has changed, applying a chrominance compensation signal to the chrominance signals to counteract the effects of chrominance saturation, wherein the step of applying a compensation signal include the steps of: generating a compensation signal which is dependent on hue and luminance ratio (output luminance signal/input luminance signal). Apparatus for performing the method is also disclosed.

    摘要: A macro-block (MB) quantization reactivity compensation method for a video encoder is provided. The method calculates a reference picture quantization value based on a calculated picture complexity. This predicted reference quantization is combined with the bits-used reactive MB reference quantization value to determine the final MB reference quantization value. This MB reference quantization value is also made adaptive to the VBV buffer fullness, as well as to the predicted change of the current picture complexity. A video encoder and an article of manufacture that comprises computer readable program code for execution of the method are also provided.

    摘要: An input frame to be motion compensated is partitioned into smaller blocks of pixel data. First, motion estimation is performed on each block in full-pixel resolution. Then, full-pixel resolution motion vector is refined to half-pixel accuracy by searching the surrounding half-pixel resolution blocks in vertical and horizontal positions with respect to the full-pixel resolution motion vector. An absolute magnitude of a horizontal component of the full-pixel resolution motion vector is examined to see if it is greater or less than a predetermined threshold to detect any significant movement. If the horizontal component absolute magnitude is less than the threshold, a frame-based interpolation will be used for forming the sub-pixel resolution block. If the horizontal component absolute magnitude is greater than the threshold, a field-based interpolation will be used instead. The sub-pixel resolution block is subjected to motion estimation and compensation to obtain a predicted block which will then be coded to obtain a coded bit stream.
