Abstract
Techniques are provided for rendering media as layers. Logical units of media form a media stream. The media stream as a whole is processed to divide components within the units into assigned layers. The layers are then formatted to a desired output format in parallel with one another when dependencies permit. Next, each unit of media is rendered to the output format by superimposing or merging multiple layers to reconstruct each unit of media in the output format.
