  • Patent number: 8989275
    Abstract: A method for video processing may include receiving video data units, and compressing the video data units to generate compressed video data units that have a variable size. The method may also include storing the compressed video data units contiguously in a memory in memory segments that have a fixed size, where the size of at least one of the compressed video data units is indivisible by the fixed size of the memory segments, and where a portion of the indivisible compressed video data unit is stored with a portion of another compressed video data unit in one of the memory segments. The method may also include determining data storage information associated with the compressed video data units, and storing the data storage information in the memory. A system may have a video processing architecture designed to support the method.
