Abstract: A method and apparatus for decoding, on a pixel-by-pixel basis, audio/video data using a table of encoded pixel parameter values, wherein each pixel is represented by an entry including a dominant pixel color component and by scaling a set of segment reference pixels comprised of segment reference pixel values according to each entry in the table of encoded pixel parameter values to produce decoded pixels comprised of decoded pixel parameter values.

Abstract: A method for decoding a compressed video file comprises receiving the encoded video file, wherein the encoded video file includes a plurality of encoded video data tables and a plurality of reference pixel value sets. The plurality of encoded video data tables are decoded using the plurality of reference pixel value sets. Decoded video data is returned.

Abstract: A method for encoding a video, comprises receiving the video as a plurality of pixel value sets, wherein each pixel value set of the plurality of pixel value sets represents a digitized pixel of the video. The plurality of pixel value sets are grouped into a plurality of digitized video frames. Each pixel value set of the plurality of pixel value sets includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion of each pixel value set is encoded to provide a plurality of dominant color values.

Abstract: Data values are encoded by mapping multi-dimensional parameters of the data values to respective one-dimensional parameters and creating a table of encoded data values in which the data values are represented by their respective encoded counterparts utilizing the one-dimensional parameters and in which redundant ones of the encoded data values share common table entries; further compressing the table of encoded data values using a data compression process; and transmitting the further compressed table of encoded data values. Additionally, a set of reference data values may be transmitted for use by a decoder when decoding the table of encoded data values. The data compression process used to further compress the table of encoded data values may be a lossless compression process. (e.g., run length encoding) or a lossy compression process. The data values may be scaled prior to creating the table of encoded data values.
