A multimedia decoder is provided that inserts synchronization words into elementary linear pulse-code modulation (LPCM) audio bitstreams. In one embodiment, the multimedia decoder includes a pre-parser, a memory, and an audio decoder module. The pre-parser receives a multimedia bitstream and separates it into an audio substream and a video substream, and inserts a synchronization words before each data packet in the audio substream while forming it into an elementary bitstream. The memory is coupled to the pre-parser to buffer the elementary audio bitstream, and the audio decoder module is coupled to the memory to retrieve the elementary audio bitstream and convert it into a digital audio signal. The inserted synchronization word may comprise between from four to ten bytes in length. In one particular implementation, the inserted synchronization word includes the ASCII representation of the letters LSILOGIC. The insertion and subsequent detection of a synchronization word in the elementary audio bitstream advantageously provides for robust synchronization in the presence of bitstream corruption while maintaining multimedia decoder modularity.
