Improved techniques for generating video content are disclosed. In some embodiments, it is determined whether a frame comprising a scene is an independent frame or a predictive frame. In the event that the frame is an independent frame, the frame is encoded independently. In the event that the frame is a predictive frame, block differences and motion vectors are encoded, wherein motion vectors are determined from a known three-dimensional model and time evolution of the scene.

Generating video content

Improved techniques for generating video content are disclosed. In some embodiments, a frame is rendered using a first rendering option. It is then determined whether the frame is an independent frame (I-frame) or a predictive frame (P-frame). In the event that the frame is an I-frame, the frame is rendered using a second rendering option that has a higher computational complexity than the first rendering option and encoded independently. In the event that the frame is a P-frame, motion vectors and prediction error with respect to the frame and one or more other frames are determined and encoded.

In the event that the frame is a P-frame, motion is estimated from a known geometry of an associated scene and motion vectors and prediction error are encoded.

In the event that the frame is an I-frame, the frame is rendered using a second rendering option. In the event that the frame is a P-frame, the frame as rendered by the first rendering option and a previous frame as rendered by the first rendering option are used to determine prediction error. The first rendering option comprises a lower computational complexity than the second rendering option.
