Abstract
To leverage an amount of unused bandwidth at a hardware encoder to generate motion estimation data, a processing unit includes a hardware encoder configured to perform a first encoding job including encoder sessions to encode a captured frame, determine motion estimation data for a rendered frame, and encode the rendered frame. Further, the processing unit includes a pre-processing circuitry configured to determine a set of motion estimation parameters based on an encoder delay associated with the performance of the first encoding job by the hardware encoder. The hardware encoder is then configured to perform a second encoding job using the determined set of motion estimation parameters.
