Method for encoding video data based on encoding parameters
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12015770B2) discloses a method for encoding video data that involves acquiring video data, configuring encoding parameters, determining time intervals between video frames in a group of pictures (GOP), and adjusting the number of frames in the GOP based on these intervals. The method includes calculating conversion factors based on target frame rates, bitrates, and the number of frames in the GOP, as well as acquiring encoding frame rates and bitrates through these calculations. The encoding parameter also encompasses the encoding frame rate, which influences the time intervals between video frames in the GOP.
Furthermore, the patent extends to a device for encoding video data, comprising processors and memories storing programs to execute the encoding method. The device follows the same steps as the method, including acquiring video data, configuring encoding parameters, determining time intervals between video frames in a GOP, and adjusting the number of frames in the GOP accordingly. The device calculates conversion factors, acquires encoding frame rates and bitrates, and considers the encoding frame rate in determining time intervals between video frames. This patent highlights a systematic approach to video data encoding, ensuring efficient processing and optimal frame adjustments within a GOP structure.
