Optimization of multi-sink wi-fi display with intelligent multi-session encoding

A system comprising:

• a power supply to provide power to the system;
• and
• a Wi-Fi display (WFD) source device including:
• a compositor to generate one or more video streams and one or more video encoding hints;
• a pre-encoding checker to perform pre-video encoding operations based on the one or more video encoding hints;
• a scaler to generate a scaled motion vector predictor hint;
• one or more encoders to encode the one or more video streams in one or more encoding sessions, and
• one or more transmitters to transmit the one or more encoded video streams.

A method comprising:

• generating, by a compositor, video content and one or more video encoding hints;
• performing one or more pre-video encoding operations on the video content based on the one or more video encoding hints;
• generating a scaled motion vector predictor hint;
• and
• encoding one or more video streams in one or more encoding sessions based on the scaled motion vector predictor hint.

An apparatus comprising:

• a compositor to generate one or more video streams and one or more video encoding hints;
• a pre-encoding checker to perform pre-video encoding operations based on the one or more video encoding hints;
• a scaler to generate a scaled motion vector predictor hint;
• and
• one or more encoders to encode the one or more video streams in one or more encoding sessions.

At least one computer readable storage medium comprising a set of instructions, which when executed by an apparatus, cause the apparatus to:

• generate video content and one or more video encoding hints;
• perform one or more pre-video encoding operations on the video content based on the one or more video encoding hints;
• generate a scaled motion vector predictor hint;
• and
• encode one or more video streams in one or more encoding sessions based on the scaled motion vector predictor hint.

A system comprising:

• one or more transmitter devices;
• a receiver device to receive a Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) transport stream (TS) from the one or more transmitter devices;
• the receiver device comprising:
• a parameter extractor to extract transmitter device parameters from the MPEG-TS;
• a display manager to derive a transmitter identifier based on the extracted transmitter device parameters;
• and
• a display device to display a thumbnail image of the one or more transmitter devices and an associated information bar that includes the transmitter identifier.
