Abstract:
1. A method for verifying performance of a media acceleration engine comprising: providing, via a computer system, input data to a replica of a media acceleration engine, the input data including a complete set of media streams; processing, via the computer system, the input data via the replica of the media acceleration engine to provide replica output data; and, providing, via the computer system, a subset of the complete set of media streams to a design of the media acceleration engine; simulating, via the computer system, the operation of the design of the media acceleration engine using the subset of the complete set of media streams to provide design output data; comparing, via the computer system, the replica output data with the design output data; verifying, via the computer system, the performance of the media acceleration engine by comparing replica output data to the design output data; and, providing, via the computer system, results of the verifying to indicate whether the media acceleration engine conforms to a media standard.
