Systems and methods for enhanced video encoding

A method in a digital video encoding system, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a digital video encoder of a video encoding system, a sequence of digital video frames;
• determining, by the video encoding system, that the sequence of video frames has been previously processed by the video encoding system;
• in response to determining that the sequence of video frames has been previously processed by the video encoding system encoding, by a machine learning module of the digital video encoding system, the sequence of digital video frames using a different encoding strategy than previously used by the machine learning module of the digital video encoding system;
• and
• determining, by the machine learning module of the digital video encoding system, that one of various different encoding strategies, including the different encoding strategy is an encoding strategy particularly suitable for encoding the sequence of digital video frames.

A digital video encoding system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor, the at least one memory having computer executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operation including:
• receiving, by a digital video encoder of the digital video encoding system, a sequence of digital video frames;
• determining, by the digital video encoding system, that the sequence of video frames has been previously processed by the video encoding system;
• in response to determining that the sequence of video frames has been previously processed by the video encoding system encoding, by a machine learning module of the digital video encoding system, the sequence of digital video frames using a different encoding strategy than previously used by the machine learning module of the digital video encoding system;
• and
• determining, by the machine learning module of the digital video encoding system, that one of various different encoding strategies, including the different encoding strategy is an encoding strategy particularly suitable for encoding the sequence of digital video frames.
