An Inverse Transform (IT) conforming to MPEG AVC I_PCM that offers better video image quality than the MPEG-2/H.263 based video decoders and real time motion picture processing at 30 frames/seconds is described. The IT module performs 4&#xd7;4 Inverse Integer transform for AVC for MPEG-2 operations on a given macro block (MB) and all its sub blocks. The IT is the third module in the data flow pipeline of a video decoder, the first two being a variable length decoder (VLD) and an inverse quantizer (IQ). The IT module gets its inputs from IQ module and feeds its processed output to a Motion compensation unit/intra-prediction (MCU-IP) module, thus reconstructing the video picture.

[object Object]

Presented herein are a system, method, and apparatus for retrieving an object from memory. The object can be stored in a manner, such that the first byte of the object and the last byte of the object are in the middle of the memory data words. The object is retrieved by a direct memory access controller. The direct memory access controller, when provided with a read transaction with the starting address and the ending address of the object, retrieves the data words storing the object, and overwrites the portions of the data word that precede and follow the object.
