  • Publication number: 20240205432
    Abstract: The technology of this application relates to an encoding method, an encapsulation method, a display method, an apparatus, and an electronic device. The encoding method includes obtaining a to-be-encoded image, determining N encoding scales (N is an integer greater than 1) for the image, determining an encoding parameter corresponding to each of the N encoding scales, to obtain N groups of encoding parameters, and encoding the image N times by using a preset single-scale encoder based on the N groups of encoding parameters to obtain N groups of bitstream data. In this way, the image is encoded to obtain the bitstream data with a small data amount (namely, the bitstream data with a low encoding scale), so that when a network fluctuates, the bitstream data corresponding to the image can arrive at a decoder side with a higher probability, thereby ensuring smoothness of video playing.
