Abstract: A system and method for encoding video and reducing video artifacts in the encoded video are provided. The system and method of the present disclosure provide for enabling a user to simply select a preset (e.g., a group of encoding or re-encoding parameters) to fix or provide a starting point to fix video artifacts present in an encoded video. Furthermore, the system and method of present disclosure flag, classify, and organize potential post-encoding related video quality issues, e.g., video artifacts such as banding, dark noise, etc., that are detected during the encoding process. By identifying and categorizing video artifacts, the system and method make the fixing of these video artifacts easier and more precise thereby increasing quality, saving time, and performance.

Abstract: A 3D image projector having a translucent rotatable hollow cylinder, the hollow cylinder having differently polarized sections, and the projector being capable of passing a light beam generally orthogonally through a wall of the hollow cylinder is disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method, apparatus and system for visually comparing a video file against its source as the video file is being re-encoded, for example, into another video format. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a video frame and a corresponding re-encoded video frame are placed into a single wide (combined) video frame to display each image, for example, side-by-side in the same frame. By synchronizing the source video frames with the re-encoded video frames and displaying them on the same wide video frame, differences caused by, for example, the encoding process may be visually determined as the video is being re-encoded into a desired, second video format.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a coding method intended to improve the performance of GCC coding based on the temporal centre of gravity of displayed video codes. According to the invention, the number of video levels that can be selected in order to implement the GCC coding is increased by increasing the number of subfields in the video level display frame. This increase in the number of subfields is made possible by simultaneously addressing the cells of at least two adjacent rows of the PDP during at least two subfields of the video image display frame.
