Patent ID: 6897902

Claim:
A digital video-processing unit for processing an input signal to an output data signal for a display unit, said video-processing unit comprising a processor for processing the input signal to the output data signal, the processing including a first resizing and a second resizing, memory means for storing the input signal prior to supply to said processor, and a memory manager coupled with the processor and the memory means, the memory manager being arranged to transfer the input data signals to the memory means and to transfer the stored input data signal from the memory means to the processor for the first resizing, respectively, wherein an output of the processor is coupled to an input of the memory manager, wherein the memory manager is further arranged to transfer the output data signal from the processor to the memory means for storing the output data signal, and to transfer the stored output data signal from the memory means to the display unit, and wherein the memory manager is further arranged to transfer the stored output data signal from the memory means to the processor, and said processor is further arranged to execute the second resizing on the stored data output signal, wherein said processor and said memory manager are arranged to execute different processes in time multiplex.
