Abstract
An apparatus, method, and computer program encode video information. The apparatus, method, and computer program use a global deviation for previously encoded video information to encode additional video information. The global deviation represents a difference between (1) at least one expected characteristic of the previously encoded video information if encoded at a target bit-rate and (2) at least one actual characteristic of the previously encoded video information. The apparatus, method, and computer program use the global deviation to adjust at least one encoding parameter, which is then used to encode the additional video information.
