Abstract

A multi-format video decoder includes an entropy decoding device that generates entropy decoded (EDC) data from an encoded video signal. A multi-format video decoding device includes a memory module that stores a plurality of operational instructions including at least one matrix multiply instruction that includes matrix input configuration data. A plurality of vector processor units generate a decoded video signal from the EDC data, wherein at least one of the plurality of vector processors include a matrix multiplier that generates output data based on a multiplication of first input data and second input data in accordance with the matrix input configuration data, wherein the matrix input configuration data indicates the dimensionality of the first input data and the second input data.
