Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9619081A1] A device for transmitting a number of video programmes over a transmission channel having a predetermined throughput capacity, including, for each programme channel supplying a multiplexer, a video encoder having a frame-by-frame programmable encoding throughput. The device comprises, on each programme channel, a frame store (20) with a capacity of at least one frame positioned upstream from the programmable encoder (16), and an auxiliary encoder (22) receiving a series of input frames one frame ahead of the the first encoder. Means (26) for comparing the qualities of the frames encoded by the auxiliary encoders with one another or with a reference value control the encoding throughput to balance the output qualities of the various encoders.
