PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide systems and methods of decoding variable length codes in order to further increase data rates in a multimedia transmission system.SOLUTION: A method of processing a bit stream via buffers comprises: determining the number of bits available in a buffer; parsing fixed and variable length codes from a bit-wise stream of multi-media data by maintaining and reading data points of the multi-media data in a processor aligned (e.g., word aligned) way; and decoding variable length codes particularly in a received state using multiple levels of decoding tables to speed up decoder table searching.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of converting video data to film data.SOLUTION: A method of converting video data to film data includes deinterlacing video data from a first field and a third field to produce first field video data, providing second field video data, and merging the first field video data and the second field video data to produce first frame video data. The method further includes copying video data from a fourth field and a fifth field to produce second frame video data. An apparatus for converting video data to film data includes a first deinterlacer for deinterlacing video data from a first field and a third field to produce first field video data, and a copy module for providing second field video data and merging the first field video data and the second field video data to produce the first frame video data.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide improvement in a multimedia data processing apparatus and method.SOLUTION: The invention generally relates to multimedia data processing, and more particularly, to processing operations performed prior to or in conjunction with data compression processing. A method of processing multimedia data includes: receiving interlaced video frames; obtaining metadata for the interlaced video frames; converting the interlaced video frames to progressive video using at least a portion of the metadata; and providing the progressive video and at least a portion of the metadata to an encoder for use in encoding the progressive video. The method can also include generating spatial information and bi-directional motion information for the interlaced video frames, and generating progressive video based on the interlaced video frames using the spatial and bi-directional motion information.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve processing in a decoder in a multimedia transmission system. SOLUTION: A fixed length code and a variable length code are parsed from a bit-wise stream of multimedia data by maintaining and reading the multimedia data in a processor-aligned way. A fixed length code word reads determined available bits and bits associated with a portion of the processor-aligned data, and a variable length code word reads at least some of the available bits. Variable length codes, particularly in a received state, are decoded using multiple levels of decoding tables to speed up decoder table lookup. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Abstract:
Aspects include systems and methods of improving processing in an encoder in a multimedia transmission system. Multimedia data may include one or more of motion video, audio, still images, or any other suitable type of audio-visual data. Aspects include an apparatus and method of encoding video data. For example, an apparatus and method of reduced reference frame search in video encoding is disclosed.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus encode video at a targeted bit rate and yet permit variation of a Quantization Parameter (QP) to encode video of varying complexity with relatively consistent visual quality. Constant bit rate (CBR) encoding is desirable in many applications, such as in transmission or broadcasting environments. However, conventional CBR techniques compromise visual quality. Disclosed techniques permit adaptive variation in a QP value and provide the improved visual encoding available in variable bit rate (VBR) schemes while maintaining enough adherence to a targeted bit rate to be applicable to CBR environments.
Abstract:
A method of increasing the error resilience of encoded multimedia data, the method comprising obtaining content information of multimedia data, wherein the content information includes content classifications for portions of the multimedia data, each content classification for a portion determined by a texture value associated with spatial complexity of the portion, and a motion value associated with temporal complexity of the portion; and encoding portions of the multimedia data as intra-coded blocks or inter-coded blocks based on the content classification.
Abstract:
Métodos y aparatos para el rastreo de la frecuencia de una senal recibida. En un aspecto, se provee un método en el que la senal recibida comprende uno o más símbolos que tienen una estructura periodica. El método comprende recibir una pluralidad de muestras de un símbolo seleccionado que comprende senales piloto enmaranadas con datos y determinar un tamano de ventana y un factor de periodicidad. El método también comprende acumular una correlacion entre muestras en una primera ventana y muestras en una segunda ventana a efectos de producir un valor acumulado de correlacion, teniendo las ventanas primera y segunda un tamano y una separacion basados en el tamano de ventana y en el factor de periodicidad, respectivamente, y derivar una estimacion del error de frecuencia sobre la base del valor acumulado de la correlacion.
