Transcoder for coded video
First Claim
1. A transcoder for coded video, which performs transcoding an encoding mode, and outputting, comprising:
- a coded data extractor that partially decodes coded information of compressed video data and extracts it;
an approximate image generator that generates an approximate image from the coded information that has been extracted;
a first motion vector detector that performs detection of motion vector candidates from the approximate image;
a decoder that decodes the coded information and generates a luminance signal and a chrominance signal;
a second motion vector detector that performs detection of a motion vector on the basis of the luminance signal that has been produced in the decoder and the motion vector candidates that have been detected in the first motion vector detector; and
a re-encoder that performs re-encoding of the data on the basis of the motion vector information that has been detected in the second motion vector detector, the luminance signal that has been decoded in the decoder, and the chrominance signal the data format of that has been transcoded.

Abstract
Provided is a transcoder for coded video the encoding mode of that is changed according to the coded data, itself, that has been compressed by transcoding, or information prepared by decoding only a part thereof. A coded data extractor partially decodes DV coded data (a) that has been input, and sends DCT coefficients (b) to an approximate image generator and to a decoder, and outputs quantization parameters (c) to a first motion vector detector. The approximate image generator generates an approximate image according to a part of the DCT coefficients (b). A first motion vector detector roughly detects motion vector candidates (e). A second motion vector detector, using the motion vector candidates (e) as an initial position, hierarchically detects a motion vector (f). A re-encoder encodes the data into one the encoding mode of that is new, according to a luminance signal (h) that has been decoded in the decoder, the chrominance signal (j) the data format of that has been transcoded in a sampling format transcoder, and the motion vector (f) that has been detected in the second motion vector detector.
