Abstract
A method and system for encoding multimedia content using dynamic interfaces. By providing an extendable, programmatic interface to the content of a scene, a scene may be more efficiently encoded than a scene in which each characteristic of each object in the scene is explicitly specified in the video stream for each frame. Exemplary scene characteristics that can be encoded include quantizing values, animation parameters and update parameters.
