Abstract
A method of compressing and storing preview video includes performing colorspace-reduction image compression on a reference frame of a video to generate a colorspace-reduced reference frame; determining difference blocks representing areas of a subsequent image frame that differ from the reference frame and generating a difference frame comprising colorspace-reduced image data of the difference blocks; generating a video stream comprising a color palette, the colorspace-reduced reference frame, and the difference frame, and storing the video stream in an extreme low-voltage memory; and injecting, into the video stream prior to storing the video stream in the extreme low-voltage memory, a plurality of resynchronization codes for each reference frame and a plurality of resynchronization codes for each difference frame, the resynchronization codes comprising a byte sequence unique to resynchronization codes. Embodiments continue with decompressing the compressed video and using the resynchronization codes to recover from bit errors in the memory.
