Abstract
A system and method to manipulate information in an audio decoder, the system having a demultiplexer to separate the information into packets of audio data and packet parameters, a control manager for controlling the packet parameters, and an audio decoder to manipulate the packets of audio data in response to the packet parameters. The invention also includes a control processor for passing host parameters to the control manager and a digital-to-analog converter to convert the audio information from a digital signal to an analog signal.
Claims29
A device for manipulating information including parameters and data, said device comprising:
- an information handler configured to control said parameters, said parameters including packet parameters and host parameters that are sent by a control processor to said information handler, said packet parameters and said host parameters being stored into a series of explicitly dedicated parameter buffer locations;
- and
- a decoder coupled to said information handler to manipulate said data by using said packet parameters and said host parameters from said series of explicitly dedicated parameter buffer locations.
A system for manipulating information, comprising:
- means for separating said information into data and packet parameters;
- means for storing said data;
- means for analyzing said packet parameters;
- means for receiving host parameters from one or more external sources;
- means for storing said packet parameters and said host parameters in a series of explicitly dedicated parameter buffer locations;
- means for manipulating said data in response to said packet parameters and said host parameters;
- and
- means for converting said data from a first format to a second format.
A method of manipulating information, comprising the steps of:
- separating said information into data and packet parameters;
- storing said packet parameters into a series of explicitly dedicated parameter buffer locations;
- receiving host parameters from one or more external sources;
- storing said host parameters into said series of explicitly dedicated parameter buffer locations;
- and
- manipulating said data in response to said packet parameters and said host parameters.
A computer-readable medium comprising program instructions for manipulating information, by performing the steps of:
- separating said information into data and packet parameters;
- storing said packet parameters into a series of explicitly dedicated parameter buffer locations;
- receiving host parameters from one or more external sources;
- storing said host parameters into said series of explicitly dedicated parameter buffer locations;
- and
- manipulating said data in response to said packet parameters and said host parameters.
