The embodiments of this application relate to a video encoding method performed at a computer device. The video encoding method includes: during video encoding, obtaining an input video sequence; selecting, from candidate video sequence encoding modes, a target video sequence encoding mode corresponding to the input video sequence, the candidate video sequence encoding modes including a constant-resolution encoding mode and a mixed-resolution encoding mode; and encoding each input video frame of the input video sequence according to the target video sequence encoding mode, to obtain encoded data.
