Hardware implementation of inverse scan for a plurality of standards

Abstract

Presented herein are hardware implementations for inverse scanning for a plurality of standards. In one embodiment, there is presented a system for decoding video data. The system comprises an inverse scanner for inverse scanning video data encoded in accordance with a first encoding standard and for inverse scanning video data encoded in accordance with a second encoding standard. In another embodiment, there is presented a decoder for decoding video data. The decoder comprises an inverse scanner. The inverse scanner is operable to inverse scan video data encoded in accordance with a first encoding standard and inverse scan video data encoded in accordance with a second encoding standard.
