Abstract
By inserting a downsampling filter between the decoding and re-encoding parts of a transcoder, a reduced resolution transcoding is performed. Before transferring the decoded motion vectors to the encoding part, the motion vectors are processed by additional operations provided in order to take into account the fact that macroblocks before and after the resizing step no longer match.
