Abstract
MPEG-2 video coding is widely used in broadcasting and increasingly in studio applications. For reasons of limited storage and/or transmission capacity, it may be necessary to reduce the bit rate of MPEG-2 video bitstreams. We present an implementation of a frequency domain transcoder (FDTC) on a media processor which reduces the bit rate of an incoming video bitstream in real time. The FDTC has a low complexity and low memory requirements. A rate control with low delay provides a bitstream with constant bit rate (CBR) at the output, independent whether the input bit rate is variable (VBR) or constant (CBR). The FDTC achieves a better or same peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) than a bulky cascade of a complete MPEG-2 video decoder and encoder.
