Abstract

A run-level coding module can be used in a video encoder that generates a processed video signal from a video input signal. The run-level coding module includes a run-level coder that generates a first plurality of run-level pairs from a first stream of quantized data. A first ring buffer buffers a first number of the first plurality of run-level pairs. The processed video signal is generated based on the buffered first number of run-level pairs.
