Embodiment Construction

[0015]Specific embodiments of the invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying figures. Like elements in the various figures are denoted by like reference numerals for consistency.

[0016]As was previously discussed, in current video coding standards such as H.264 / AVC, the coding operations of prediction, transformation, quantization, and entropy coding are performed based on fixed size 16×16 blocks referred to as macroblocks. Further, a quantization parameter is generated for each macroblock with no provision for doing so for larger or smaller blocks. For larger frame sizes, e.g., frame sizes used for high definition video, using a larger block size for the block-based coding operations may provide better coding efficiency and / or reduce data transmission overhead. For example, a video sequence with a 1280×720 frame size and a frame rate of 60 frames per second is 36 times larger and 4 times faster than a video sequence with a 176×144 frame size and a f...
