Abstract

The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for generating predicted data utilizing data gathered from portions of one or more bit streams present in a static buffer, or look-ahead window buffer over a first time period. By generating predicted data for the bit streams over a second time period, the present invention provides a longer “effective” look-ahead window buffer(s) time period without increasing system delay usually associated with increasing the “actual” look-ahead window buffer size.
