Abstract
A system and method for dynamically changing encode quality at a block level based on runtime pre-encoding analysis of content in a video stream. A video encoder continuously analyzes the content during runtime, and collects statistics and/or characteristics of the content before encoding it. This classifies the block among pre-defined categories of content, where every category has its own compression parameters.
