Abstract
A system and method provide a video coding system for optimizing encoding bitrate, distortion and complexity for a video hosting service. The system comprises an encoding module configured to encode multiple videos with a bitrate control strategy, a pair of complexity allocation control parameters and one or more target output video formats specifications, which include target resolution, target bitrate and target quality information. The encoding module obtains encoding bitrate, distortion and complexity performance samples from the encoding. From the encoding bitrate, distortion and complexity performance samples, the encoding module is configured to select optimal encoding bitrate, distortion and complexity performance samples. The encoding computation profile mapping module is configured to obtain multiple computation levels from the optimal encoding bitrate, distortion and complexity performance samples. For each computational level, a pair of optimized complexity allocation control parameters and number of encoding passes are selected.
