Abstract

Systems and/or methods are described that enable multi-threaded multimedia processing. These systems and/or methods may, in some embodiments, allocate threads for components of a multimedia pipeline based on input/output characteristics of the components. These systems and/or methods may also allocate threads and priorities for those threads based on a relative importance given components of two or more multimedia pipelines.
