Embodiment Construction

[0023] While the following detailed description contains numerous specific details for purposes of explanation, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that many variations and modifications of the following details are within the scope of the present disclosure. Accordingly, the aspects of the disclosure described below are to be set forth without any loss of generality and without imposing limitations on the claims accompanying this specification.

[0024]In general, various embodiments of the present disclosure describe being configured to reduce latency and / or delay between source and destination devices when streaming media content (eg, streaming audio and video from a video game). Or a method and system for reducing the latency instability between the two. Latency instability may be introduced in one-way latency between server and client due to the extra time required to generate complex frames (e.g. scene changes) at the server, Increased time to encode / compr...

Abstract

A method for encoding includes executing, at a cloud game server, game logic built on a game engine of a video game to generate video frames. The method includes executing a scene change logic to predict a scene change in the video frame based on game states collected during execution of the game logic. The method includes identifying a range of video frames predicted to include the scene change. The method includes generating a scene change prompt using the scene change logic, where the scene change prompt identifies the range of video frames, where the range of video frames includes a first video frame. The method includes delivering the first video frame to an encoder. The method includes sending the scene change prompt from the scene change logic to the encoder. The method includes encoding the first video frame as an I frame based on the scene change prompt.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to streaming systems configured to stream content across a network, and more particularly to providing scene change hints to encoders for video frames generated during execution of a video game in order to reduce cloud gaming server and Latency between clients, providing consistent latency between cloud game servers and clients, and improving the smoothness of client-side display of videos. Background technique [0002] In recent years, online services have been promoted that allow online or cloud gaming in streaming format between cloud gaming servers and clients connected through a network. Streaming formats are gaining popularity due to the availability of game titles on demand, the ability to network between players for multiplayer gaming, sharing assets between players, sharing instant experiences between players and / or viewers, allowing friends to watch A friend playing a video game, having a friend join a game ano...
