Abstract

A system for encoding data blocks and methods of operating the same result in a video encoder that provides advanced intelligent encoding. The video encoder comprises DCT (discrete cosine transformer) resources configured to DCT the data blocks. Quantizing resources is coupled to the DCT resources configured to quantize the data blocks to provide quantized data blocks. Inverse quantizing resources is coupled to the quantizing resources to inverse quantize the quantized data blocks. Frame reconstruction resources is coupled to the inverse quantizing resources configured to reconstruct previous compressed frames. Motion estimation resources is coupled to the frame reconstruction resources configured to provide predicted data blocks. Subtraction resources is coupled to the DCT resources and the motion estimation resources to subtract the data blocks and the predicted data blocks. An output data buffer is coupled to the quantizing resources configured to provide a data rate signal to the quantizing resources for modifying quantizer values of the quantizing resources in order to maintain a particular target output data rate of the compressed image data.
