Abstract
A system and method that process encoded data, wherein the encoded data is an encoded video stream. The encoded data may be buffered and the characteristics of the buffered encoded data may be determined and used to select a decoding table from a plurality of decoding tables. An encoded word may then be decoded using the selected decoding table. The output of the decoding table may be the corresponding decoded word and the size of the encoded word. The size of the encoded word may be utilized to shift the buffered encoded data. The decoded word may be sent to the appropriate portion of the system.
