System for Real-time Processing Changes Between Video Content in Disparate Formats
First Claim
1. A modular video processing system capable of processing a plurality of video assets having different asset properties in substantially real-time to a format compatible with a display device, the system comprising:
- a plurality of pipelined video processing modules wherein each operational pipelined video processing module performs a different configurable video processing function on one or more video asset frames; and
a process control module for providing each operational pipelined video processing module with data for configuring the video processing module for a current frame and data for configuring the video processing module for a subsequent frame wherein each configuration is based on one or more asset properties for the video asset being processed.

Abstract
A modular video processing system and methodology for processing a plurality of video assets having different asset properties in real-time to a common format compatible with a display device is described. The system includes a plurality of pipelined video processing modules wherein each operational pipelined video processing module performs a different configurable video processing function on one or more video asset frames. The system also includes a process control module for providing each operational pipelined video processing module with data for configuring the video processing module for a current frame and data for configuring the video processing module for a subsequent frame wherein each configuration is based on one or more asset properties for the video asset being processed. Each pipelined video processing module has a memory location for the configuration for the current frame and a memory location for the configuration for a subsequent frame.

18. A method for processing a plurality of video assets having different asset properties in substantially real-time to a format compatible with a display device, the method comprising:
-
obtaining a play list of the plurality of video assets to be displayed on a display device;
sequentially retrieving each video asset listed in the play list from a memory location;
processing each video asset to a format that is compatible with the display device; and
output the processed sequential video assets to the display device;
wherein each video asset is processed and displayed in substantially real-time.
