Abstract
Aspects of the subject technology relate to encoding of video frames having content with a variable resolution that varies within the video frame. Aspects of the subject technology can provide an efficient encoding by using smaller macroblocks for lower resolution content within the video frame, and larger macroblocks for higher resolution content within the video frame. An encoder may be provided with resolution information for the content of the video frame, which can be used by the encoder to determine macroblock sizes, macroblock divisions, and/or prediction modes for the encoding of the video frame.
