Abstract

Methods and systems for processing video data are provided herein. Aspects of the method may comprise receiving on a chip, a plurality of video frames and storing a portion of the received video frames in a memory on the chip. A first portion of the stored video frames may be decoded on the chip and a second portion of the stored video frames may be encoded on the chip during the decoding. A third portion of the stored video frames may be converted from an input video format to a YUV video format. A reference frame corresponding to the converted third portion may be identified from the stored video frames. After conversion, the converted third portion of the received video frames may be utilized as the reference frame for estimating/encoding, or compensating/decoding temporal motion of the subsequently received video frames.
