1. A computer-implemented method of decoding video in a video decoding chipset, the video decoding ellipse comprising a data transport processor, a decoder, a graphics feeder, and a compositor, the method comprising:
receiving a video signal and a picture improvement signal at the data transport processor;
decoding the video signal at the decoder to create decoded video;
deriving, from the picture improvement signal, pixel touching information to be used to modify a pixel of the decoded video;
providing the graphics feeder with the pixel touching information to produce and to deliver picture enhancements to the decoded video, the pixel touching information produced as a graphics overlay signal for superimposing into the decoded video; and
providing the pixel touching information to the compositor to compose the decoded video and the graphics overlay signal to provide a composite video output comprising the decoded video and the output of the graphics feeder.
