Abstract: According to some embodiments, an external memory unit stores rows of macroblocks representing an image. A set of macroblocks may be transferred from the external memory unit to a local buffer, the set of macroblocks including fewer macroblocks than a row. A macroblock may then be decoded based on information in the local buffer to generate an image signal.

Abstract: An embodiment improves the operation of a H.264 and Joint Scalable Video Codec (e.g., JSVC/H.264 Amendment 3) video decoder by managing neighboring block data during the decoding process. An embodiment pre-computes neighboring block tables to efficiently locate the neighboring block data required to decode a current macroblock. In particular, the pre-computed most probable joint neighboring block tables disclosed herein handle both macroblock adaptive frame field (MBAFF) coding and non-MBAFF coding. An embodiment is further capable of managing variable block sizes. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: The VPS and vps_extension( ) syntax structures are updated with some cleanups for the HEVC Extensions in scalable video coding, multi-view coding and 3D video coding areas. In addition, four options of adding syntaxes to support mixed video sequences in various layers for the VPS extension are described.

Abstract: The profile_tier_level syntax structure of a High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) syntax structure is updated to provide more flexibility for use in the vps_extension( ) syntax structure for use in each layer or operating point. A new flag ‘LevelPresentFlag’ is added in profile_tier_level syntax structure to support the variance of Level parameters separately from the Profile/Tier Parameter. The update to the profile_tier_level syntax structure provides flexibility in selecting profile_tier and level parameters for HEVC selections in scalable video coding, multi-view coding and 3D video coding areas.

Abstract: The HEVC VPS Syntax Structure is modified by re-ordering of some syntax parameters for the future HEVC Extensions in scalable video coding, multi-view coding and 3D video coding areas. This re-ordering enables external network devices such as middle-boxes to easily access of some of the useful parameters in VPS and its extension data that are able to be used for session negotiation and/or capability exchanges for better communication and system integration purposes.

Abstract: HEVC NAL Unit extension structure enables use of extensions beyond the base NAL Unit structure. Besides using one of the reserved bits, there is no other impact in the “base” NAL Unit structure. In the extension part of this NAL Unit structure, syntax parameters are introduced with register type fixed byte-sizes. This extension process also provides a generic framework for various future combinations of scalability and multi-view coding extensions.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a compact table generator module and a storage medium. The compact table generator creates a compact code table having multiple code word groups arranged in one or more hierarchies. Each of these code word groups includes a group mask that corresponds to one or more code words in a variable length code table. The storage medium stores information regarding the code word groups, such as a group mask for each of the code word groups, and a code index for each code word in the variable length code table.
