A system for processing video data to improve image quality at low data rates comprising:
- an encoder operating on a processor and configured for generating an entropy signal representing a relative entropy of the video data;
- and
- a plurality of filters each operating on the processor and configured for receiving the entropy signal and a threshold setting and filtering the video data if the entropy signal is greater than the threshold setting, wherein the filters comprise:
- a variable anti-jitter filter;
- a variable anti-alias filter;
- and
- wherein the threshold settings of the variable jitter filter and the variable alias filter are symmetric.
A system for processing video data to improve image quality at low data rates comprising:
- an offset generation system operating on a processor and configured for receiving a plurality of frames of video data and generating offset data;
- an offset derivative system operating on the processor and configured for receiving the offset data and generating offset derivative data;
- a limit system operating on the processor and configured for receiving the offset derivative data and applying a predetermined threshold limit to the offset derivative data;
- a time correction system operating on the processor and configured for receiving the offset data and generating time corrected offset data;
- a derivative removal system operating on the processor and configured for receiving the time corrected offset data and the threshold limited offset derivative data and generating time-corrected, derivative-corrected offset data;
- and
- an anti-aliasing system operating on the processor and configured for receiving the time-corrected, derivative-corrected offset data and generating corrected offset data.
