METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING MULTI-THREADED VIDEO DECODING

摘要

An apparatus for enabling provision of multi-thread video decoding may include at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code. The at least one memory and the computer program code may be configured, with the processor, to cause the apparatus to perform at least assigning decoding of a respective video frame to a corresponding thread for each core processor of a multi-core processor in which each respective video frame is divided into macroblock rows, resolving dependencies for each respective video frame at a macroblock row level, and providing synchronization for video decoding of each corresponding thread at the macroblock row level. A corresponding method and computer program product are also provided.
