Video coding solutions based on fixed, pre-defined video coding standards have certain limitations. Dynamic reconfiguration has the potential to offer greater ratedistortion performance than fixed codecs, making it possible to rapidly implement new algorithms and efficiently support multiple coding formats on a single platform. In this paper we describe a framework for dynamic re-configuration of video codecs, Fully Configurable Video Coding, in which new or modified decoder designs are generated, transmitted and implemented by a Universal Video Decoder. We present initial results of a real-time software prototype.
