Abstract
An encoder calculates a first local encoding parameter for a first block of video content based on one or more local metrics. The encoder modifies the first local encoding parameter based on one or more second local encoding parameters for one or more second blocks of video content that are adjacent to the first block of video content. The encoder then encodes the first block using the modified first local encoding parameter. In some cases, the local encoding parameters are quantization parameters used to quantize values of pixels or compression parameters used to compress values of the pixels. The local metric can include one or more of a target bit rate, a texture complexity, a contrast, an indicator of motion in the first block, and an importance map.
