Abstract
A data arrangement method includes following steps: obtaining pixel data of a plurality of first N-bit pixels of a picture; and storing the obtained pixel data of the first N-bit pixels in a plurality of M-bit storage units of a first buffer according to a block-based scan order of the picture. The picture includes a plurality of data blocks, and the block-based scan order includes a raster-scan order for the data blocks. At least one of the M-bit storage units is filled with part of the obtained pixel data of the first N-bit pixels, M and N are positive integers, M is not divisible by N, and the first N-bit pixels include at least one pixel divided into a first part stored in one of the M-bit storage units in the first buffer and a second part stored in another of the M-bit storage units in the first buffer.
