Patent ID: 7376185

Claim:
A single chip digital signal processing device for real time video/audio compression, the device comprising: a video input processor which receives, analyzes, scales and processes video data; a motion estimation processor which receives video data that has been processed by the video input processor and produces a motion analysis therefrom; a digital signal processor which, according to said motion analysis, compresses video data that has been processed by the video input processor; a bitstream processor which formats video data that has been compressed by the digital signal processor to produce a video bitstream; and a multiplexing processor which multiplexes said video bitstream with a second bitstream to produce a multiplexed data stream; wherein said motion estimation processor operates on macroblock a of frame I, said digital signal processor operates on macroblock b of frame I, said bitstream processor operates on macroblock c of frame I, and said multiplexing processor operates on frame J concurrently, wherein a≧b≧c, and I≧J.
