Abstract
A hardware multi-stream multi-standard video decoder device. A command parser accesses a plurality of video streams, identifies a video encoding standard used for encoding video streams of the plurality of video streams, and interleaves portions of the plurality of video streams. A plurality of hardware decoding blocks perform operations associated with decoding the plurality of video streams, wherein different subsets of the plurality of hardware decoding blocks are for decoding video streams encoded using different video encoding standards, such that interleaved video streams are decoded by activating subsets of the plurality of hardware decoding blocks for use in decoding the plurality of video streams. A plurality of register sets store parameters associated with the plurality of video streams.
