Abstract

A video processing unit (13) that decodes compressed video data and resizes the image represented by the video data. The video processing unit (13) has two processing engines--a decoding engine (24) and a scaling engine (25), which share a memory (23). A memory manager (22) handles data requests from the two engines, and handles reading and writing of the memory (22).
