Abstract

A system and method for intelligent decoded picture buffering is described. In one embodiment, a video bitstream buffer receives and temporarily holds an encoded compressed bitstream containing portions of a video. Then, a look ahead parser scans ahead in the video to analyze portions of the encoded video bitstream in the video bitstream buffer to predict the value of the video. Based on this prediction, an intelligent memory manager prioritizes the video portions, and then sends the high valued video portions to a first buffer and sends the low valued video portions to a second buffer.
