The invention relates to a video compressing and encoding method with an alpha transparent channel, comprising the following steps of: inverting the acquired video image to the image in the format of RGB or YUV4:4:4 / YUV4:2:2 / YUV4:2:0; compressing the acquired data in the alpha transparent channel in a no-damage mode; encoding and compressing video data for the video image in the specific format according to the frame format of MPEG-2 I and saving the compressed data in the alpha transparent channel in the compressed data structure of the video image. The method realizes the encoding of a specific video picture, can use a standard MPEG2 encoder for encoding, and effectively reduces video bitrate when ensuring the high quality of the video so as to realize the video data encoding with high quality, high efficiency and low cost.
