Abstract:
A controller and a method for controlling output bitrate of a video encoder when encoding a video stream. The method for controlling output bitrate of a video encoder when encoding a video stream comprises: receiving weather forecast data for a location where the video stream is captured; predicting, based on the weather forecast data, a future increase in output bitrate of the video encoder due to weather affecting contents of the video stream; and reducing the output bitrate of the video encoder by increasing a compression level of the video stream so as to compensate for the future increase in output bitrate of the video encoder.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the weather forecast data further indicates when in time a weather condition as specified by the one or more weather related parameters will occur, wherein the step of predicting includes predicting when there will be a future increase of output bitrate, and wherein, in the step of reducing the output bitrate, the compression level of the video stream is increased during the predicted future increase of output bitrate of the video encoder.
