Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide for a region-of-interest compression methodology wherein a variety of encoders may be utilized to perform video compression on a plurality of filtered video frames without the need to generate specific instructions for each of the variety of encoders. Embodiments of the present invention receive a video frame and create a region-of-interest map based on the received video frame. The region-of-interest map is utilized to create a filtered video frame based on the received video frame. This process may be repeated for each video frame within a video stream, thereby creating a plurality of filtered video frames. The plurality of filtered video frames is transmitted to an encoder for video compression.
