A video recording method and a video recording device are provided. The method includes: obtaining video data to be recorded; dividing, based on the video data, each frame of the video data into a region of interest and a background region by using a preset neural network model; and encoding the region of interest of the video data based on a first encoding bit rate, and the background region based on a second bit rate, and storing the encoded video data into a storage device through a video buffer.

Described are methods, apparatuses and computer program products for signaling and storing compressed point clouds. Sub-sample entries associated with sequences of sub-samples within sequences of samples may indicate whether sequences of sub-samples were encapsulated alone in a track, without other sub-samples or additional header data. Sub-sample entry types can be indexed at track-level sub-sample description boxes. Point cloud compression coded bitstream component types may be signaled by including respective point cloud unit header information in a codec-specific parameters-related field of track level sub-sample description boxes. Sub-sample information boxes may indicate sub-sample entry indices for respective sub-samples. A flag in such information boxes may indicate the presence of sub-sample description entry indexes. Description index boxes can contain sub-sample description entry indexes in the same container as sub-sample information boxes. Track fragment header boxes can include sub-sample description entry indices that apply to samples of a track fragment.

An endoscope apparatus includes a compression processing control unit configured to carry out a compression processing of compressing image data by using a compression parameter to generate compressed data, a monitor that is a display unit configured to display a display image corresponding to the image data, an information quantity detection unit configured to detect a quantity of information on an object contained in the image data, and a judgement unit configured to carry out a judgement processing of judging whether or not a judgement value corresponding to the quantity of information is smaller than a predetermined threshold. The image pickup of the object and the generation of the image data are continuously performed multiple times, and the judgement processing is carried out whenever the image data is generated. The compression parameter and the display image are determined based on a result of the judgement processing.

A method for transmitting video content segments includes providing Low Frame Rate (LFR) and High Frame Rate (HFR) encoding mode designations for video content segments having static scenes and scenes with motion, respectively. Each video content segment is encoded accordance with its encoding mode designation and then transmitted with its encoding mode designation to enable retrieval and decoding by a decoder. Encoded video content appears as LFR content for processing as LFR content by equipment unaware of the present encoding.

A method for encoding a video signal includes estimating a space requirement for encoding a tile of a video frame, writing a first value in a first value space of the bitstream, wherein the first value describes a size of a second value space, and defining the second value space in the bitstream, wherein the size of the second value space is based on an estimated space requirement. The method also includes writing encoded content in a content space of the bitstream, determining a size of the content space subsequent to writing encoded content in the content space, and writing a second value in the second value space of the bitstream, wherein the second value describes the size of the content space.
