In this paper we consider the computational constraints of a multimedia communication system and propose a video adaptation mechanism for live video streaming of multiple channels. The video adaptation mechanism includes three salient features. First it adjusts the computational resource of the streaming server block by block to provide a fine control of the encoding complexity. Second as far as we know it is the first mechanism to allocate the computational resource to multiple channels. Third it utilizes a complexity-distortion model to determine the optimal coding parameter values to achieve global optimization. These techniques constitute the basic building blocks for a successful application of wireless and Internet video to digital home surveillance IPTV and online games.
