H.264 Decoder Functions

This section describes the functions for H.264 Decoder in accordance with JVT-G050 ([JVTG050]) standard.

H.264 Decoder Structure



Note iconNote

This Motion Compensation process is performed by general motion compensation functions (See General Functions), which sum the predictor data and the residual and stores the result into the destination picture.

The following schemes show macroblock decoding with the help of video coding functions. The schemes for Intra16x16, intra 4x4, and P or B macroblock decoding show two paths of video coding functions using low and high level functions respectively. The blocks marked with yellow background color are interchangeable.

Intra 16x16 Macroblock Decoding



The following graph shows decoding process for I macroblock type in the case of Intra_4x4 prediction mode.

Intra 4x4 Macroblock Decoding



The following graph shows decoding process for P or B macroblock type.

P or B Macroblock Decoding



The following graph shows decoding process for SI or SP macroblock type. Note that SI is an intra macroblock and SP is a predicted macroblock but their decoding schemes are similar.
