Method and apparatus for motion estimation for video processing. An embodiment of a method for motion estimation includes the following steps. In the course of motion estimation, integer motion estimation is performed with respect to a macroblock to generate a plurality of integer motion vectors. It is determined, according to a portion of the motion vectors, which correspond to a plurality of block modes, whether the integer motion vectors of each block mode are substantially equal to those of a corresponding upper-layer block mode of the block mode, so as to determine whether to perform or skip fractional motion estimation of the block mode, wherein each corresponding upper-layer block mode(s) of the block modes is greater than the block mode.

A composite method and apparatus for adjusting an image resolution are provided, which are applied for adjusting a digital image or de-interlace scanning, especially for achieving an edge enhancing effect. The composite method may include: obtaining an original image and a scaling factor for adjustment S; after that, detecting an edge of the original image and generating an edge map for the original image; then, calculating and generating an adjusted image with a scaling factor equal to 2; and finally, converting the adjusted image into a final image, which is S times the original one.

An architecture of multilayered DRM protection structure for multimedia service and the method of forming the same are provided. The architecture comprises a multilayered DRM encryption structure and a DRM decryption structure. The inputted multimedia service is decomposed and encrypted into an encrypted multimedia service stream through a multimedia service decomposer and a multimedia DRM organizer. The encrypted stream is decrypted by a DRM composer from top layer to bottom layer. A full or partial multimedia service is then presented. For a multimedia service application, this enhances the DRM protection by increasing the complexity of multimedia encryption for a multimedia service application. It also provides the variety for the multimedia service application via different compositions of multimedia objects. The DRM protection structure is embedded into each layer of multimedia services and objects and can be set up different levels of DRM protection.
