Abstract: A method and apparatus uses a section filter to perform a filtering operation, such as a match, do not match, within range, or without range filtering operation, on bitstream data in accordance with a rule. The filtering operation may begin at any bit location in the bitstream data and end at any location in the bitstream data. The result of the filtering operation is compared to a value determined by the rule, or if further rules are to be employed, the result is transmitted to a further section filter which performs a further filtering operation on the bitstream data. As many section filters may be linked in this way as the number of rules to be employed. When the section filter corresponding to the last rule to be employed has performed its filtering operation, all results are compared to values determined by the rules employed to determine which data to extract from the bitstream data.

Abstract: The system includes an arbiter, a combined engine, a frame buffer, and a display processing unit. The arbiter provides three input channels: a first channel for graphics, a second channel for video and a third channel for processor. The arbiter performs prioritization and arbitration between the video and graphics and processor requests sent to the system. The arbiter has three output ports coupled to the combined engine. The combined engine is a hardware engine capable of processing either video data or graphics data. The output of the combined engine is provided to the frame buffer for the storage of pixel data. The output of the frame buffer is coupled to a display processing unit that renders the pixel data for display.
