Abstract
A data processing system including a buffer configured to temporarily maintain a portion of a plurality of compressed data streams and a switch. Each portion of the plurality of compressed data streams comprise one or more units of an encoded media signal. The switch is for providing selective connectivity between the buffer and one or more processors configured to change a property of the data stream. The switch directs one or more units from the buffer to the one or more processors.
Claims28
A data processing system comprising:
- a first buffer for temporarily maintaining a portion of a plurality of compressed data streams, each portion comprising one or more units of an encoded media signal;
- and
- a switch for providing selective connectivity between the buffer and one or more processors configured to change a property of the data stream, the switch configured to direct one or more units from the buffer to the one or more processors.
A method for data processing comprising:
- temporarily maintaining a portion of a plurality of compressed data streams in a buffer, each portion comprising one or more units of an encoded media signal;
- and
- providing selective connectivity between the buffer and one or more processors configured to change a property of the data stream, the switch configured to direct one or more units from the buffer to the one or more processors.
A computer-readable medium having a computer program for processing data comprising:
- logic configured to temporarily maintain a portion of a plurality of compressed data streams in a buffer, each portion comprising one or more units of an encoded media signal;
- and
- logic configured to provide selective connectivity between the buffer and one or more processors configured to change a property of the data stream, the switch configured to direct one or more units from the buffer to the one or more processors.
