Patent Images
1. An image encoding apparatus, comprising:
- an encoding engine coupled to a source of an image frame comprising a plurality of blocks of pixel data, the encoding engine enabled to encode each of selected blocks of the plurality of blocks of pixel data to a block-selected quality level, the encoding engine coupled to a network interface; and
a state sequencer, the state sequencer enabled to obtain block-specific indications of persistence, block-specific progressive build state and encoding parameters to determine the selected blocks and the block-selected quality level for each of the selected blocks.

Abstract
An image encoding apparatus. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises an encoding engine coupled to a source of a block of pixel data, the encoding engine enabled to encode the block of pixel data to a quality level, the encoding engine coupled to a network interface; and a state sequencer, the state sequencer enabled to obtain an indication of scan block persistence, build state information and encoding parameters to control the quality level.
