Abstract:
1. A multiplexing video decoding method for receiving bit streams, each of said bit streams comprising a plurality of slices and received in a plurality of channels, and decoding the bit stream of each of the plurality of channels in a multiplexed mode, the multiplexing video decoding method comprising the steps of: decoding video signals, wherein the decoding includes decoding a slice of a bit stream of one channel from the plurality of channels; sequentially switching to decode a slice of a bit stream for each of the other plurality of channels, by obtaining a program state corresponding to a program counter value associated with a respective one of the plurality of channels; and decoding in a multiplexed mode bit streams of the plurality of channels by repeating the above steps for a next slice in each of the plurality of channels.
