Abstract

A method for detecting events comprises repeatedly registering a value indicating an amount of data generated by an encoder, which is encoding video from a scene by means of temporal compression, determining if a particular event has occurred in the scene represented by the encoded video by comparing characteristics of the registered values with predetermined characteristics, and generating an event signal in response to an event occurrence being determined.
