One of the most popular video coding standards in use today is High
Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), also known as H.265. In this paper, a novel
Flexible Macroblock Ordering (FMO) scheme known as Super frame FMO (SFMO) is
proposed for HEVC video compression. The SFMO scheme is combined with a
concealment aware Unequal Error Protection (UEP) scheme using RS codes and
interleaved to improve the performance of the RS decoder. Moreover, Multiple
Description Coding (MDC) is used to further improve its performance. The
simulation results have shown that the proposed system surpassed an Equal
Error Protection (EEP) scheme by an average gain of 3.02 dB in the range of
0.1 ? Packet Loss Rate ? 0.5 with FLI (Frame Level Interleaving)- SFMO.
Additionally, the FLI-SFMO scheme outperformed Explicit Chessboard- Wipe
(ECW) FMO by an average gain of 1.48 dB.
