Abstract
A video signal is analyzed to determine what compression coding decisions would be taken if the video signal were to be MPEG2 encoded. A representation of these coding decisions then accompanies the un-coded video signal for use in a downstream 'dumb' encoding process. The coding decisions take the form of an MPEG2 bitstream and are embedded in Isb's of the video.
