Abstract: An apparatus for encoding and decoding video receives a request to decode a current video frame. The apparatus determines whether encoding is within a threshold for a previous video frame. Additionally, the apparatus waits for the encoding to start if the encoding is within the threshold. Further, the apparatus provides a signal to begin encoding the current video frame. Also, the apparatus submits a decode workload to a graphics processor unit (GPU) for the current video frame. The apparatus additionally submits, in parallel with submitting the decode workload to the GPU, an encode workload to the GPU for the previous video frame.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for transmitting functional safety statistics within a system. A video source produces a video data stream. A functional safety system driver accumulates functional safety statistics from at least one system and writes the functional safety statistics onto an associated system memory. A display sub-system driver writes a frame of the video data stream to the system memory. The display sub-system driver formats the functional safety statistics as video data and appends the functional safety statistics to a portion of the frame of video that is reserved for the functional safety statistics. A display sub-system transmits the frame of the video data stream to a host processor, which extracts the functional safety statistics from the video frame.

Abstract: A method of decoding a bitstream by an electronic device is provided. A block unit is determined from an image frame received from the bitstream. An intra prediction mode index corresponding to one of wide-angle candidate modes is determined for the block unit. The electronic device determines whether the intra prediction mode index is different from predefined indices each corresponding to one of predefined wide-angle modes in the wide-angle candidate modes. Filtered samples are generated based on reference samples neighboring the block unit. The filtered samples are generated by an interpolation filter when the intra prediction mode index is different from the predefined indices. The filtered samples are generated by a reference filter when the intra prediction mode index is equal to at least one of the predefined indices. The block unit is reconstructed based on the filtered samples along a mode direction of the intra prediction mode index.
