What I referred to was latency in terms of encoding and decoding block lengths, not in signal propagation ... Julius

There is one more thing to consider: the video compression schemes often use a bit reservoir of several hundred kilobytes or so. This reservoir is slowly filled during the normal operation and emptied in the cases of the peak demand. The operation of this reservoir is more involved then a simple buffer; it is controlled from the transmitter side. Vladimir Vassilevsky DSP and Mixed Signal Design Consultant http://www.abvolt.com

Text got lost: Latency in TV isn't much harder to deal with than latency in recordings. One can allow for it if the worst case is known. The latency of my cable box is a few hundred ms. Correction: I can't prove more than about 100 ms in the box itself.

Latency in TV iOne can allow for it if the worst case is known. The latency of my cable box is a few hundred ms.

One thing to keep in mind is that allowed decoding latency, which the original poster didn't state. I wonder if the question really was, "If I were to re-encode the entire steam (over the entire week) and decode the entire stream all at once, what is the optimal bit rate?"

If the content is typical, just compute bits per week and divide to get any interval you want (bits/day. bits/sec, etc.).

Hi guys,

       I have been recoding the bit-rate information of one video content
for a week. This system used the variable bit-rate which varied as the
complexity of video picture (eg. fast-moving picture requires higher
bit-rate). I would like to determine the optimal bit-rate from this
one-week information, do you have any efficient model beside using density
estimation (plotting data histogram)?
