Abstract
An apparatus and methods for controlling power consumption in video encoding obtain, before motion estimation is performed on an image frame to be encoded, information regarding an amount of the image frame to be encoded that is static with respect to a previously encoded image frame. The apparatus and methods adjust power consumption of the video encoder based on the obtained information regarding the amount of the image frame to be encoded that is static.
