Abstract

Techniques for emulating frequency coefficients of film grain for video (e.g., frame) encoding are described. According to some embodiments, a computer-implemented method includes receiving a request to encode a video with film grain at a content delivery service, performing a film grain synthesis on a frame of the video with film grain to generate film grain metadata for the frame and generate a degrained frame from the frame, determining film grain emulation frequency coefficients based at least in part on the film grain metadata for the frame, performing a frequency transform on the degrained frame to generate frequency coefficients for the degrained frame, encoding the frame into an encoded frame, by the content delivery service, based at least in part on the frequency coefficients for the degrained frame and the film grain emulation frequency coefficients, and transmitting the encoded frame from the content delivery service to a viewer device.
