The gaming market has kept growing significantly in recent years. Driven by multiple technology advances, such as cloud computing and video technologies, new gaming applications, e.g. AR, VR and cloud gaming, are becoming more and more practical and popular. Among different types of gaming, the emergence of cloud gaming is driving the market with enhanced gamer experience as well as new challenges to the services. One of the key technological challenges of gaming applications is the video coding, which is the foundation of several popular gaming applications, including cloud gaming and game live streaming. Comparing to the typical camera captured content and screen content, gaming content presents unique features that directly lead to different preferences on the selection of coding tool sets. To better understand the behaviors of known video coding tools and provide test materials for research and development on future coding tools that benefits more on gaming content, in this paper, a dataset consists of a set of gaming video is proposed together with analysis of the performances of existing coding tools on these materials. It is observed that, several known coding tools are exceptionally beneficial for gaming content and the rational is analyzed in this paper.
