METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VIDEO ENCODING AND/OR DECODING TO PREVENT START CODE CONFUSION

Abstract:

A method and a video processor for preventing start code confusion. The method includes aligning bytes of a slice header relating to slice data when the slice header is not byte aligned or inserting differential data at the end of the slice header before the slice data when the slice header is byte aligned, performing emulation prevention byte insertion on the slice header, and combine the slice header and the slice data after performing emulation prevention byte insertion.
