Abstract

With the growing popularity of variable network technologies, it is highly desirable to enable effective and quick browsing of remote multimedia content. In this paper we present a method for quick access of remote video content as an initial step towards a full digital Video Cassette Recording functionality in multimedia streaming applications such as Video-On-Demand, video broadcasting and remote video editing.We propose a transcoding scheme for H.264/AVC video that fully utilizes the benefits of recently proposed SP- and SI-frames to facilitate user-friendly remote stream browsing and editing. The transcoding parameters can be adaptively changed and optimized to support different characteristics of H.264 video streams.
