See full text

Apparatuses and methods for adjusting an encoding profile to change the visual quality of broadcast video based, at least in part, on a time of day. An example apparatus may include an encoder configured to receive a video input and provide an encoded bitstream based at least in part on an encoding profile, wherein the encoder is further configured to determine the encoding profile based on a time of day. An example method may include encoding images based on a first profile during a first time period, changing to a second profile based on a second time period, and encoding images based on the second profile during the second time period.
