似乎不是绝对的
Adaptive Quantisation allows different parts of a frame to use different quantisers, as opposed to the whole frame using the same quantizer. The common use for this in XviD was that it would compress light and dark areas more, thus freeing bits for parts that were more noticable. Adaptive Quantisation works differently in x264 because it was added by Haali to address a problem that large blue areas could sometimes look blocky. Adaptive Quantisation in x264 assigns more bits to dark and blue areas to help stop them blocking up
