Video encoder, video encoding system and video encoding method

Abstract:

The present disclosure discloses a video encoder, a video encoding system and a video encoding method. The video encoder comprises a logic control module and an encoding module. Wherein, the logic control module is configured to receive a control command sent from an external controller for encoding a specified portion of each frame of image, and send the control command to the encoding module; and the encoding module is configured to receive the control command from the logic control module, and encode the specified portion of each frame of image according to the control command, so as to cooperate with a plurality of other video encoders to complete encoding each frame of image. By employing the video encoder, video encoding system and video encoding method according to the present disclosure, each frame of image can be accomplished jointly by a plurality of video encoders, thus significantly reducing the encoding time, diminishing the encoding latency, and achieving real-time encoding of high-definition video sources, in particular, video sources with a resolution ratio of 4 k or above.
