Abstract:
1. A video encoder adapted to compress video information in a robust coded bitstream comprising: a definition module adapted to receive video frames and to parse the video frames into video objects; and a video object plane (VOP) encoders adapted to generate intra-coded VOPs (I-VOPs) and predictive-coded VOPs (P-VOPs) that correspond to the video objects, where a VOP encoder from the VOP encoders is configured to generate a predictive-coded VOP (P-VOP) from the video frame, where the VOP encoder is configured to generate a standard motion vector for the video object of the present frame, where the standard motion vector references motion to a portion of a frame that is immediately prior to the present frame, where the VOP encoder is configured to generate a redundant motion vector that is independent of the standard motion vector for the video object of the present frame, where the redundant motion vector references motion to a portion of a frame that is prior to the frame referenced by the standard motion vector, where the VOP encoder embeds the redundant motion vector in a data packet, where an output of the VOP encoder is related to the robust coded bitstream.
