Abstract:
1. A system for use in video data compression, comprising: a common encoder module configured to receive and process an input signal and to generate an intermediate signal from the input signal, wherein the intermediate signal comprises prediction error; a first encoding channel module coupled with the common encoder module, wherein the first encoding module is configured to receive the intermediate signal and to encode, based on a first set of attributes, the intermediate signal to generate a first encoded output signal comprising video data encoded based on the first set of attributes; and a second encoding channel module coupled with the common encoder module, wherein the second encoding module is configured to, in parallel with the first encoding channel module, receive the intermediate signal and to encode, based on a second set of attributes, the intermediate signal to generate a second encoded output signal comprising the video data encoded based on the second set of attributes.
