    摘要: Techniques and tools for switching distortion metrics during motion estimation are described. For example, a video encoder determines a distortion metric selection criterion for motion estimation. The criterion can be based on initial results of the motion estimation. To evaluate the criterion, the encoder can compare the criterion to a threshold that depends on a current quantization parameter. The encoder selects between multiple available distortion metrics, which can include a sample-domain distortion metric (e.g., SAD) and a transform-domain distortion metric (e.g., SAHD). The encoder uses the selected distortion metric in the motion estimation. Selectively switching between SAD and SAHD provides rate-distortion performance superior to using only SAD or only SAHD. Moreover, due to the lower complexity of SAD, the computational complexity of motion estimation with SAD-SAHD switching is typically less than motion estimation that always uses SAHD.

    摘要: A decoder receives an entry point header comprising plural control parameters for an entry point segment corresponding to the entry point header. The entry point header is in an entry point layer of a bitstream comprising plural layers. The decoder decodes the entry point header. The plural control parameters can include various combinations of control parameters such as a pan scan on/off parameter, a reference frame distance on/off parameter, a loop filtering on/off parameter, a fast chroma motion compensation on/off parameter, an extended range motion vector on/off parameter, a variable sized transform on/off parameter, an overlapped transform on/off parameter, a quantization decision parameter, and an extended differential motion vector coding on/off parameter, a broken link parameter, a closed entry parameter, one or more coded picture size parameters, one or more range mapping parameters, a hypothetical reference decoder buffer parameter, and/or other parameter(s).

    摘要: Techniques and tools for intensity compensation for interlaced forward-predicted fields are described. For example, a video decoder receives and decodes a variable length code that indicates which of two reference fields for an interlaced forward-predicted field use intensity compensation (e.g., both, only the first, or only the second). The decoder performs intensity compensation on each of the two reference fields that uses intensity compensation. A video encoder performs corresponding intensity estimation/compensation and signaling.
