A system and method of transmitting video packets to enhance error concealment and error resilience are provided. The method includes encoding a first macroblock of video data into a video packet. The method also includes determining whether a length of the video packet including the first macroblock exceeds a threshold length. The method also includes encoding a second macroblock into the video packet as the final macroblock when the length of the video packet with the first macrobock exceeds the threshold length. The method also includes transmitting the video packet.

Error concealment and error resilience

New and improved apparatus and methods for video encoding, for example, to efficiently and concurrently encode video data into digital formats, such as Digital Video (DV) format. A pipelined system receives a block of video data and based on the computations and comparisons concurrently performed on the pixels within the block of video data determines which type of transformation is most appropriate for a given block of video data.
