Abstract
A video decoder architecture for processing out-of-order macro-blocks of a video stream. A microcode engine receives compressed data representing macro-blocks of a frame of a video stream, wherein at least one macro-block is received out-of-order. The microcode engine is for buffering the compressed data and for ordering the macro-blocks of the frame in raster scan order. A digital video decoder receives the macro-blocks in raster scan order and is for decoding the macro-blocks.
