Multidimensional Transcoding for Adaptive Video Streaming

Overview Video content providers often offer their video streams at three or more different quality levels: low, medium and high quality. These different levels are needed to support different target devices. However, this static kind of adaptation to discrete quality levels cannot meet the requirements of all existing multimedia devices. Because of the increasing heterogeneity of Internet-enabled video devices a more dynamic and individual adaptation to the requirements of the consuming device is needed. One approach for video adaptation is the use of video transcoding techniques, where modifications of the video stream are done in the compressed domain to save processing power.
