Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of digital media recording such as video or audio, where compression is used to reduce the amount of data to save onto a data storage. In particular the invention relates to recording media, wherein the memory area required to store the media is unknown. The invention discloses a method for recording digital streamed media with a number of media frames in a memory by encoding each media frame into an encoded frame comprising a first number of sets of data, representing different characteristics of the media stream. The invention further relates to detecting if the data storage is full and if the data storage is full, storing new frames in the data storage previously occupied by the data sets representing the least prioritized characteristics of the previously stored encoded frames. The invention also relates to a corresponding media recorder and computer program.

Abstract: The present invention relates to flow control of a digital data stream that is to be transmitted with limited bit rate. The present invention provides a mix between CQ and CB. This in order to, in real time, ensure best possible quality of a data stream given a maximum available band with. This is useful both when saving a data stream to a data storage with a limited size and when playing the data stream in real time. In particular the invention relates to a method for flow control of a digital data stream that is to be sent with a limited transmission bit rate R. The method comprises encoding each data frame of a digital data stream into an encoded data frame comprising n quality layers and thereafter balancing the output of the encoder in order to achieve a constant bit rate on the output. The invention also relates to a corresponding data recorder and computer program.

The invention discloses a method for recording digital streamed media with a number of media frames in a memory by encoding each media frame into an encoded frame comprising a first number of quality layers, such as the quality layers in JPEG2000. The invention further relates to detecting if the data storage is full and if the data storage is full, storing new frames in the data storage previously occupied by the quality layer representing the highest resolution of the previously stored encoded frames. The invention also relates to a corresponding media recorder and computer program.
