Abstract
A video coding system includes a decoder configured to decode an encoded reference picture, a primary memory, and a secondary memory configured to store the decoded reference picture. The video coding system also includes a logic device configured to extract motion vectors for generating a predicted picture of the reference picture and to store the extracted motion vectors in memory bins. The reference picture includes a plurality of predefined regions and each memory bin stores motion vectors for a particular region of the plurality of predefined regions. For each of the plurality of predefined regions of the reference picture, the logic device is configured to use the memory bin corresponding to a reference region to read the reference region from the secondary memory and write the reference region into the primary memory. The written reference region and the motion vectors of the corresponding memory bin are used to spatially translate the written reference region into the predicted picture.
