Abstract-Scalable Video Coding (SVC) / H.264 is one type of video compression techniques. Which provided more reality in dealing with video compression to provide an efficient video coding based on H.264/AVC. This ensures higher performance through high compression ratio. SVC/H.264 is a complexity technique whereas the takes considerable time for computation the best mode of macroblock and motion estimation through using the exhaustive search techniques. This work reducing the processing time through matching between the complexity of the video and the method of selection macroblock and motion estimation. The goal of this approach is reducing the encoding time and improving the quality of video stream the efficiency of the proposed approach makes it suitable for are many applications as video conference application and security application.

Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is an international standard technique for video compression. It is an extension of H.264 Advanced Video Coding (AVC). In the encoding of video streams by SVC, it is suitable to employ the macroblock (MB) mode because it affords superior coding efficiency. However, the exhaustive mode decision technique that is usually used for SVC increases the computational complexity, resulting in a longer encoding time (ET). Many other algorithms were proposed to solve this problem with imperfection of increasing transmission time (TT) across the network. To minimize the ET and TT, this paper introduces four efficient algorithms based on spatial scalability. The algorithms utilize the mode-distribution correlation between the base layer (BL) and enhancement layers (ELs) and interpolation between the EL frames. The proposed algorithms are of two categories. Those of the first category are based on interlayer residual SVC spatial scalability. They employ two methods, namely, interlayer interpolation (ILIP) and the interlayer base mode (ILBM) method, and enable ET and TT savings of up to 69.3% and 83.6%, respectively. The algorithms of the second category are based on full-search SVC spatial scalability. They utilize two methods, namely, full interpolation (FIP) and the full-base mode (FBM) method, and enable ET and TT savings of up to 55.3% and 76.6%, respectively.
