Abstract

An apparatus comprising an output circuit, a first processing circuit and a second processing circuit. The output circuit may be configured to generate an output data stream in response to (i) a first intermediate signal, (ii) a second intermediate signal, and (iii) a third intermediate signal. The first processing circuit may be configured to generate the first intermediate signal in response to (i) a processed video signal and (ii) a prediction flag. The second processing circuit may be configured to generate (i) the processed video signal, (ii) the second intermediate signal and (iii) the third intermediate signal in response to an input video signal.
