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 1):
A method for controlling output bitrate of a video encoder when encoding a video stream, comprising:\n receiving weather forecast data including one or more weather related parameters 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, wherein a future increase in output bitrate is predicted by comparing the one or more weather related parameters to predetermined thresholds; and reducing the output bitrate of the video encoder by increasing a compression level applied by the video encoder when compressing the video stream when a future increase in output bitrate has been predicted, thereby compensating for the future increase in output bitrate of the video encoder.
