Tech Papers 2023: This paper demonstrates how the Versatile Video Coding (VVC) standard enables the use of more efficient open Group of Pictures (GOP) coding in adaptive streaming workflows, significantly improving compression efficiency and subjective video quality compared to the legacy closed GOP method.
Abstract
Over-The-Top adaptive streaming technology has become a popular method for delivering high-quality video content over the internet, adjusting the video quality based on the user's internet connection speed and device capabilities. It uses multiple bit-rates encoding of video content, where the video is divided into smaller segments of varying bit-rates and resolutions. Due to codec constraints, the segments had to be coded in a so-called closed GOP configuration while in broadcast, a more efficient open GOP is widely used. The emerging Versatile Video Coding (VVC) standard allows ...
