<p>A system and method for creating and processing a unified stream of data that includes both temporal and non-temporal data, preferably in a compressed format. A scheduler (602) takes temporal data (e.g. sound data) and non-temporal data (e.g. image data) and interleaves them together to form a unified data stream (610). A processor is included that decompresses compressed image data and produces an output image from both decompressed image data and any uncompressed image data. The processor also plays the temporal data (604) while concurrently decompressing the compressed temporal data. Temporal data (604) may be in any format, including voice data and MIDI files, as well as image data, including videos and still images. A computer slide show may be formed by scheduling and playing video and sound data (including MIDI and voice), in which the video and sound data are interleaved into a unified data stream (610).</p> |
