1. A multimedia processing engine comprising:

  • a format analyzer configured to determine the format of encoded digital data;

    a functionality generator in communication with the format analyzer, the functionality generator being configured to select or generate hardware and software platform independent functionality that decodes the digital data encoded in the determined format;

    the functionality generator being further configured to generate or select hardware and software platform independent syntax elements that contain information to create and implement a new functionality that decodes the digital data encoded in the determined format in a receiver in which decoding of digital data encoded in the determined format is unsupported; and

    a multiplexer configured to multiplex the encoded digital data with the syntax elements and send the multiplexed data and syntax elements to a non-transient storage medium as a single set of bits.
