| Abstract | Modern video compression includes a mature set of codecs, tools, and techniques that correspond to a variety of coding efficiencies and royalty costs in video delivery. In early work we showed that there can be significant benefits to employing a royalty-aware encoder that jointly optimizes rate, distortion, and royalty cost by choosing among several codecs having different royalty costs. In this paper we assume the existence of such an encoder and concentrate on how royalty costs should be assigned to benefit a system of users, video service providers, and tool/codec owners. Our work operates on the intersection of rate-distortion principles with basic concepts from economics and tries to address issues that are rapidly becoming very relevant in media delivery. Using a simple model that captures user preferences of video quality levels (given costs associated with these levels), we formulate the assignment of royalty costs as an optimization problem and solve it for optimal costs for several scenarios. The main trade-offs that govern our results are the cost of bandwidth and previously unachievable quality levels (if any) that a state-of-the-art codec gives access to. We show that content-based cost assignment not only increases user utilization but also the royalty earnings for tool owners compared to content-unaware pricing policies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
