Abstract

An apparatus comprising a first circuit, a second circuit and a disc. The first circuit may be configured to (i) extract video data as data blocks from an input signal and (ii) perform error correction on the data blocks with a delta syndrome based iterative Reed-Solomon decoding. The second circuit may be configured (i) to decode corrected video data into a video format in a first state, (ii) encode the corrected video data in a second state and (iii) share an external memory between the first circuit and the second circuit. The disc may be configured to store encoded video data in the second state.
