Abstract
A method of determining a quantization parameter for video compression. A block characteristic for blocks in a video frame is quantized and then used to obtain a candidate quantization parameter. With the candidate quantization parameter, a number of bits for the blocks in the video frame is summed, producing a candidate bit rate. If the candidate bit rate is greater than a predetermined bit rate threshold, the candidate quantization parameter is set as the quantization parameter.
