  • Abstract
    This work introduces a novel way to decode a video H.264 stream. An advanced Vector Graphics pipeline has been modified and used to decode H.264 Main Profile video bit streams, instead of using a native decoder. The Vector Graphics GPU can be used to perform tasks for which it was not originally intended: acceleration of video at resolutions between QCIF to Full HD without loss or any drift of quality compared to the H.264 native decoder output.
