Abstract
Apparatus, and an associated method, for selecting the encoding bit rate at which an encoder encodes selected video frames of a sequence of video frames at a video sending device. Selection is made to provide a constant-consistency quality level and constant frame rate of display of the video frames at a video receiving device. Selection of the encoding bit rate is made responsive to a targeted frame rate and allowable communication rates upon a communication channel upon which encoded representations of the video frames are to be communicated.
