A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for reducing digital video image data. In one embodiment, the method comprises comparing a signature for one or more regions of a current frame of the image data to a signature of a corresponding region of one or more previous frames; and for a region of the one or more regions, sending the region to the data sink if comparing the signature results in determining that the signature of the region does not match a signature of a corresponding region of a previous frame available at the data sink.
A method for use by an image data source when providing frames of image data to a data sink, where each of the frames includes one or more regions, the method comprising:
An apparatus for reducing an amount of image data that is provided by an image data source when providing frames of image data to a data sink, where each of the frames includes one or more regions, the apparatus comprising:
An article of manufacture having one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media storing instructions which when executed by an image data source causes the image data source to perform a method when providing frames of image data to a data sink, where each of the frames includes one or more regions, the method comprising:
