Some typical transcoding techniques from DVC (distributed video coding) to traditional video coding are introduced in this paper, these techniques are well suited for mobile to mobile communication. Especially, the transcoding techniques from DVC to H. 264 are introduced in detail, in which the high complexity and long delay for transcoding process is one of the most tough issues. To solve it, the motion vector generated in DVC decoding is made full use to reduce H. 264 encoding workload. In this algorithm, the encoding time is decreased and the computational complexity of the transcoder is reduced, which could improve transcoding efficiency under the premise of scarcely affect video quality. In addition, the transcoding methods and programs from DVC to other traditional video coding are also introduced. Furthermore, the application potentials of DVC transcoding in the currently mobile video communications are analyzed. Finally, the challenges and development directions in this filed are pointed out in this paper.
