Video Processing Unit (VPU) Driver
15.1 Hardware Operation
The VPU hardware performs all of the codec computation and most of the bitstream
parsing/packeting.
Therefore, the software takes advantage of less control and effort to implement a complex
and efficient multimedia codec system.
The VPU hardware data flow is shown in the MPEG4 decoder example in the following
figure.
