Dual-mode teleconferencing system

Abstract: In a teleconferencing system, a video encoder at the transmit end of the system includes a frame memory for storing video samples of a frame of a motion-picture signal and reading video samples at frame intervals. For still-picture transmission, an encoder circuit translates video samples read out of each successively shifted location of the frame memory which corresponds to at least one scanning line period of the frame into a signal representative of an intraframe correlation between adjacent video samples and generates a signal of a constant value during remaining line periods of the frame. For motion-picture transmission, video samples of the motion-picture signal for at least one scanning line period are translated into a signal representative of the intraframe correlation and video samples of remaining line periods of each successive frame are translated into a signal representative of the interframe correlation between successive frames. A video decoder at the receive end recovers a video sample from successively received intraframe correlation representative signals, delays it for a frame period to recover a video sample from the delayed sample together with a subsequently received signal which is the constant value signal during the still-picture mode and which is the interframe correlation representative signal during the motion-picture mode. The decoder further delays the last-mentioned video sample for a frame period to repeat the recovery process.

Inter-frame prediction method in video coding, video encoder, video decoding method, and video decoder

Abstract: An inter-frame prediction method in video coding, a video encoder using the same, a bitstream structure, a video decoding method, and a video decoder are provided. The inter-frame prediction method in video encoding includes estimating a motion vector between a current block in an input frame and a reference block in a reference frame corresponding to the current block and a filtering mode defining a spatial effect to be applied to at least one of the current block and the reference block, and intercoding the input frame according to the estimated motion vector and the filtering mode.

Encoding circuit, decoding circuit, encoder circuit, decoder circuit, and CABAC processing method

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an encoding circuit includes a taking-over unit which takes over probability tables of divided regions of a previous frame image of a frame image having divided regions to divided regions of a present frame image, respectively, an acquiring unit which acquires a parameter of an adjacent macro block of the previous frame image when the macro block is located on a boundary between the divided regions, a selecting unit which calculates the parameter of the macro block to select one of probability models in the probability table, and an encoding unit which arithmetically encodes a residual signal in the frame image on the basis of the selected probability model to generate an encoded bit string.

MPEG-2 decoder, method and buffer scheme for providing enhanced trick mode playback of a video stream

Abstract: Trick mode playback is implemented by disengaging a frame synchronization signal, and then decoding “I” and “P” frames to two (or more) buffers. Specifically, each buffer has a pointer that is associated with a memory/origin address. The pointers are locked in place by disengaging the frame synchronization signal. Once the pointers are locked in place, the “I” frames and “P” frames are decoded to the two buffers in an alternating fashion based on a continuous swapping of the memory addresses associated with the two pointers. Because both “I” and “P” frames (as opposed to only “I” frames) are decoded and displayed, the trick mode playback appears smoother. In addition, because the frame synchronization signal was disengaged, the frames can be decoded at a rate faster than a single frame time. That is, one frame need not be completely decoded and read out before the next frame is decoded.

Compressed video recording device with integrated effects processing

Abstract: A method and system are provided for real-time special effects processing, compressing and storing video signals A memory is provided for storing plural frames including a sequence of one or more uncompressed frames One or more processors are also provided for forming a sequence of special effect frames Each special effect frame is a combination of one uncompressed frame (stored in the memory) and frame data other than the uncompressed frame (which combination can be a linear combination) The processor(s) also compresses the special effect frame
