Abstract:
A power management method is provided to detect system information for a multimedia process, which is to be executed in a multimedia processor system that includes a plurality of cores belonging to a plurality of power domains. The power domains are controlled independently of one another. The method further identifies a set of power domains that provides a processing capacity matching a requirement of the multimedia process indicated in the system information, and supplies power to one or more of the power domains according to the identified set of power domains.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure provide a method and device for storing an input image into a memory. The disclosure describes allocating one or more frame buffers in the memory. The disclosure further describes dividing the input image into access units corresponding to subsets of the input image and allocating a main portion and a secondary portion in the frame buffer for each of the access units, wherein at least one of the secondary portions is not sequentially located after its respective main portion within the frame buffer. The disclosure also describes compressing the access units into compressed access units and storing each of the compressed access units into its respective main portion, and if a size of the compressed access unit exceeds a size of the main portion, then storing a remainder of the compressed access unit into its respective secondary portion.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure provide a method and a circuit for adaptive loop filtering in a video coding system. The method can include receiving a block of samples generated from a previous-stage filter circuit in a filter pipeline, the block of samples being one of multiple blocks included in a current picture, performing, in parallel, adaptive loop filter (ALF) processing for multiple target samples in the block of samples, while the previous-stage filter circuit is simultaneously processing another block in the current picture, storing, in a buffer, first samples each having a filter input area defined by a filter shape that includes at least one sample which has not been received, and storing, in the buffer, second samples included in the filter input areas of the first samples.
Abstract:
A portable device capable of building a panorama, a panoramic video or/and a panoramic audio. The portable device has a plurality of sensors with overlapping sensing areas and an input device receiving a trigger signal that triggers the sensors to sense data for generating a panoramic photo/video/audio file.
