Abstract: An under-counter mounting system and associated method are provided for mounting a dishwasher under a counter, without direct attachment to the counter. The mounting system comprises a pair of discrete bracket members each slidably received by a receiving member operably engaged with a dishwasher about a forward portion thereof, the receiving members being disposed in opposing lateral relation with respect to the forward portion of the dishwasher and configured such that the bracket members are laterally slidable between an inward position and an outward position, while being longitudinally constrained, wherein each bracket member further includes a longitudinally-extending flange disposed outwardly of the respective receiving member, and wherein the flange defines at least one fastening aperture adapted to facilitate securement of the bracket member to a laterally adjacent cabinet.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for coding video data permits coding of video information with optional, enhanced functionalities. Video data is coded as base layer data and enhancement layer data. The base layer data includes convention motion compensated transform encoded texture and motion vector data. Optional enhancement layer data contains mesh node vector data. Mesh node vector data of the enhancement layer may be predicted based on motion vectors of the base layer. Thus, simple decoders may decode the base layer data and obtain a basic representation of the coded video data. However, more powerful decoders may decode both the base layer and enhanced layer to obtain decoded video permitting functionalities. An embodiment of the present invention provides a back channel that permits a decoder to affect how mesh node coding is performed in the encoder. The decoder may command the encoder to reduce or eliminate encoding of mesh node motion vectors.
