1. An apparatus for coding video data comprising:

  • a quality setting adjustment unit configured to adjust parameters used to modify video data, the parameters including a maximum coding quality setting;

    a preprocessing unit responsive to the quality adjustment unit to modify the video data;

    a coding precision unit which is configured to adjust a number of bits used in a coding operation for coding the video data;

    a core coding unit receiving data from the preprocessing unit, the coding precision unit responsive to the coding precision unit to encode the video data at a constant bit rate,wherein the coding precision unit receives the maximum quality setting from the quality setting adjustment unit which indicates a maximum coding quality to be used on the video data, andwherein the quality setting adjustment unit receives a bandwidth reclamation factor that indicates an amount of bandwidth to be made available on average that is used to determine the maximum coding quality setting,the apparatus further including at least one memory device for storing code that is executed by at least one processor controlling the quality setting adjustment unit, the preprocessing unit, the coding precision unit and the core coding unit to enable the configuration and the responsiveness provided by each respective one of the units.
