The Optimal Real-Time Video Encoding Scheme for Multi-Camera Panoramic System Using NVENC

Abstract

This paper is aimed primarily at a comparison of several practical implementations of NVENC technology using different presets of H.264 and HEVC standards. The experiments are mainly focused on testing the encoder’s real-time ability to deal with single video input obtained from the industrial camera using different settings. To do that, some system performance parameters for the continuous monitoring during the NVENC encoding process were chosen. Results in tables I and II are compared, discussed and the best NVENC implementation with encoding scheme is chosen in the context of our briefly introduced novel panoramic system. Finally, the system is fully loaded by the 7 cameras, all streams are encoded using an optimal encoding scheme and a performance limit is established for our hardware configuration.
