ABSTRACT:
In video compression systems, a system and method for reducing visible artifacts in video coding using multiple reference pictures are provided. A first GOP characterized by a “bbIbbBbbBbbB” structure and a second GOP characterized by “bbIbbQbbMbbQ” GOP structure may be used to reduce “I” frame clicking. The “B,” “b,” “Q,” and “M” pictures may be inter-coded by using multiple prediction dependencies, including dependency to a next GOP “I” picture, to smooth out discontinuities across GOPs in a video sequence. Prediction dependencies may be based on a weighing scheme where assigned weights are a function of the temporal distance between reference pictures and the picture being encoded. A first video compression system may be used for the first GOP and may encode “I,” “B,” and “b” pictures. A second video compression system may be used for the second GOP and may encode “I,” “Q,” “M,” and “b” pictures.
