摘要:
Video decoding innovations for multithreading implementations and graphics processor unit (“GPU”) implementations are described. For example, for multithreaded decoding, a decoder uses innovations in the areas of layered data structures, picture extent discovery, a picture command queue, and/or task scheduling for multithreading. Or, for a GPU implementation, a decoder uses innovations in the areas of inverse transforms, inverse quantization, fractional interpolation, intra prediction using waves, loop filtering using waves, memory usage and/or performance-adaptive loop filtering. Innovations are also described in the areas of error handling and recovery, determination of neighbor availability for operations such as context modeling and intra prediction, CABAC decoding, computation of collocated information for direct mode macroblocks in B slices, reduction of memory consumption, implementation of trick play modes, and picture dropping for quality adjustment.

Techniques and tools for reducing latency in video decoding for real-time communication applications that emphasize low delay. For example, a tool such as a video decoder selects a low-latency decoding mode. Based on the selected decoding mode, the tool adjusts output timing determination, picture boundary detection, number of pictures in flight and/or jitter buffer utilization. For low-latency decoding, the tool can use a frame count syntax element to set initial output delay for a decoded picture buffer, and the tool can use auxiliary delimiter syntax elements to detect picture boundaries. To further reduce delay in low-latency decoding, the tool can reduce number of pictures in flight for multi-threaded decoding and reduce or remove jitter buffers. The tool receives encoded data, performs decoding according to the selected decoding mode to reconstruct pictures, and outputs the pictures for display.

Video decoding innovations for using local picture identifiers and computing co-located information are described. In one aspect, a decoder identifies reference pictures in a reference picture list of a temporal direct prediction mode macroblock that match reference pictures used by a co-located macroblock using local picture identifiers. In another aspect, a decoder determines whether reference pictures used by blocks are the same by comparing local picture identifiers during calculation of boundary strength. In yet another aspect, a decoder determines a picture type of a picture and based on the picture type selectively skips or simplifies computation of co-located information for use in reconstructing direct prediction mode macroblocks outside the picture.

A method and apparatus for scalable coding of a motion vector generated during motion estimation, in which a generated motion vector field is separated into a base layer and an enhancement layer according to pixel accuracies to obtain a layered structure for a motion vector. In addition, the motion vector field has a layered structure including a base layer composed of motion vectors of blocks larger than or equal to a predetermined size and at least one enhancement layer composed of motion vectors of blocks smaller than a predetermined size.

A quick installed joint assembly includes a fitting body, a sleeve, and an inlet pipe. One end of the chamber of the body communicates with a water supply pipeline, and the other end communicates with an accommodation part and passing through the fitting body. The sleeve is disposed within the accommodation part and has stopper portions. Each stopper portion has a wedge-like portion and a hook portion is extending outwardly from the wedge-like portion. The body has plural openings corresponding to each stopper portion, so that one end of the inlet pipe can pass through the sleeve and be inserted within the chamber. The inlet pipe corresponding to the bottom edge of the stopper portion has a large diameter portion for leaning against on the stopper portion, so the hook portion can be hooked on the openings and the inside wall of the accommodation part can support the wedge-like portion.

Error detecting and protection innovations for video decoders are described. For example, in a multithreaded video decoder, a picture extent discovery (PED) task detects an error in a video bitstream which corrupts a picture. The PED task then determines any PED sub-stage which have been completed for the picture, and based on this determination, performs error-handing PED operations. In another example, an entropy decoding (ED) task checks validity on a macroblock-by-macroblock basis using a redundant buffer to avoid overflows. Additionally, error recovery innovations are described which facilitate playback of a video bit stream at an arbitrary position. For example, a video decoder chooses a picture in the bit stream after the arbitrary position at which to begin decoding based on a determination of acceptable recovery time and/or acceptable picture quality.

In various respects, hardware-accelerated decoding is adapted for decoding of video that has been encoded using scalable video coding. For example, for a given picture to be decoded, a host decoder determines whether a corresponding base picture will be stored for use as a reference picture. If so, the host decoder directs decoding with an accelerator such that the some of the same decoding operations can be used for the given picture and the reference base picture. Or, as another example, the host decoder groups encoded data associated with a given layer representation in buffers. The host decoder provides the encoded data for the layer to the accelerator. The host decoder repeats the process layer-after-layer in the order that layers appear in the bitstream, according to a defined call pattern for an acceleration interface, which helps the accelerator determine the layers with which buffers are associated.
摘要:
A battery operated device, having a display with two or more available refresh rates, has its refresh rate selected so as to match the video frame rate of video data played back on the display. This selection is made by coordinating the resources in the device that are used to process the video from its reception through to its display.

In one embodiment, a video processing system 300 may filter a video data set to correct skew and wobble using a central processing unit 220 and a graphical processing unit 230. The video processing system 300 may apply a rolling shutter effect correction filter to an initial version of a video data set. The video processing system 300 may simultaneously apply a video stabilization filter to the initial version to produce a final version video data set.

Systems and methods for smooth rewind playback of streamed media are provided. The media includes relatively-encoded frames and independently-encoded frames. The method includes receiving a rewind request indicating a rewind speed for rewind playback of the media, selectively dropping relatively-encoded frame(s) based on a receipt constraint and a decoding constraint to form a subset of the media, and receiving frames of the subset. The method further includes selecting, in a reverse order, a selected group of pictures (GOP) included within the subset, and decoding relatively-encoded frame(s) of the GOP in a forward sequential frame order. The method further includes caching relatively-encoded frame(s) of the GOP in the forward sequential frame order, and when caching, dropping and overwriting relatively-encoded frame(s) of the GOP selectively according to a memory constraint and/or a display constraint. The method further includes displaying relatively-encoded frame(s) of the GOP in a reverse sequential frame order.
