1. A system for statistical-multiplexing of bit stream data under control of human operator, said system having a statistical distribution of average rates, said system comprising:

  • a plurality of bit stream encoders arranged in groups, each of said groups having a different bit rate range for compression of content for transmission over an electronic network, each encoder having an assigned priority for processing said bit stream data;

    a control computer configured to receive as input, the resulting current quality of content relative to output bit-streams of said plurality of encoders, and configured to send as output, the calculated desired bit-rates for said plurality of encoders; and

    a plurality of cascaded multiplexers coupled via an electronic network to receive from said control computer a scanning array for storing the results of monitoring said output bit streams, said control computer being programmed to control said plurality of bit stream encoders, thereby defining the relative quality of the output of said plurality of encoders.
