As everyone knows, no matter how the parameter in the Video Sequence Layer is encoded, in most of the cases, it is constant that the decode value of these parameters all keeps in single Video Applications.In addition, because the importance of sequence head and the needs of application, in a plurality of Video Applications, this sequence head repeats to send.
Like this, can think that some decode values in adjacent video sequence head remain unchanged as horizontal size, vertical dimension and the frame rate etc. of image.So, just can from continuous sequence head, collect the decode value of the some of this parameter, and discern these values.The decode value that occurrence number is maximum in the collected decode value is defined as the corrected value of this parameter.Then with this decode value in the follow-up sequence head of this corrected value correction.
Introduce the bearing calibration of vision signal according to an embodiment of the invention in detail below with reference to Fig. 1, wherein, this vision signal comprises a sequence head and at least one decoded picture, and this sequence head comprises at least one decoded video sequence parameter.The included video sequence parameter of this sequence head comprises horizontal size, vertical dimension and the frame rate etc. of image.
At step S110, obtain the decode value of the given number of described video sequence parameter.
This decoded video sequence parameter can be the horizontal size of image, the vertical dimension or the frame rate of image.The decode value that is received can be in succession, also can be interrupted.The numerical value of the number n of the decode value that is received can determine that promptly wrong bitrate is high more according to the bit error property of transmission, and the value of n is big more.
N decode value of this decoded video sequence parameter in n the sequence head can be stored in the buffer, a window also can be set (for example, a memory space in memory), be used to store n decode value of a decoded video sequence parameter.The length of this window is n.
At step S120, add up the number of times that each different value in the described decode value occurs.
In this step, count the occurrence number of each decode value that repeats in the decode value of this given number.For example, 10 decode values that received are followed successively by: d1, d2, d1, d1, d3, d1, d1, d1, d2, d1.Then decode value d1 occurs 7 times, and decode value d2 occurs 2 times, and decode value d3 occurs 1 time.
Then, at step S130, determine a corrected value, to proofread and correct the decode value of described video sequence parameter according to described statistics.
Can compare the number of times that each decode value occurs, to determine that the decode value that an occurrence number is no less than other decode value occurrence numbers is described corrected value.
Threshold value m less than above-mentioned given number also can be set, as the number p of the decode value that decode value comprised of the given number of this decoded video sequence parameter during more than or equal to threshold value m, determine the corrected value of this decode value for this decoded video sequence parameter, otherwise, processing turns back to step S110, again receive the other one group of decode value in this decoded video sequence parameter, up to the corrected value that finds this decoded video sequence parameter.
