Abstract

A system and method for recovering damaged data in a bistream of encoded data is disclosed. In one embodiment, the encoded data is received and a plurality of candidate decoding are generated. An evaluation measurement is generated for each of the plurality of candidate decoding. A candidate decoding to decode the bitstream of encoded data is selected dependent on the evaluation measurement. In one embodiment, this is used in the transmission of video signals over a potentially lossy communications channel.
