Why do things like confetti ruin the birate of videos and livestreams?
In: 12
Most codecs only change the pixels of a video when there is motion of some kind, whether it’s a person talking or a parade with confetti. All the places in the video that stay the same, the codec only has to transmit the pixel once until there’s a chance detected. This saves a lot of data transfer, but when things like confetti are in the video that means a lot of change and a lot of data transfer. When there’s so much data transfer sometimes the codec it stream can’t keep up and the pixels don’t change when they’re supposed to so you see the video break up.
