Abstract
A method of performing a rate-distortion optimization process comprising selecting a preferred encoding mode by optimizing a function comprising an estimate of distortion for a target image portion and a measure of bit rate required to encode that portion. The estimate of distortion is based on source coding distortion and an estimate of error propagation distortion due to loss. The method further comprises transmitting the same encoded version of the video stream from the transmitting terminal to each of a plurality of receiving terminals over respective lossy channels, using the same rate-distortion optimization process in relation to each of the plurality of receiving terminals, making the same encoding mode selection per target image portion based on the same optimization of said function. The estimate of error propagation distortion comprises an aggregate estimate of error propagation distortion that would be experienced due to possible loss over the plurality of channels.
