Abstract: Systems and methods for upscaling graphics resolution are provided. The systems and methods may selectively upscale graphics frames having a first resolution to a second resolution by various scaling methods. Depending on a variety of factors, at least a first mode of upscaling and a second mode of upscaling may provide for improved upscaling on a variety of graphics data.

Abstract: Aspects of an edge smoothing block filter and combinations of the filter with a motion compensated temporal filter are described. In one embodiment, edge smoothing block filtering includes selecting a current pixel to be filtered and selecting a candidate pixel within a search area about the current pixel. The edge smoothing block filtering generally seeks to identify candidate pixels having surrounding pixels similar to pixels surrounding the current pixel. The edge smoothing block filtering further computes a cost difference between pixels within a candidate pixel neighborhood and pixels within a current pixel neighborhood, and filters the current pixel based on the cost difference. Aspects of the filters and filter element combinations may preserve edges and textures adaptively based on image content. For example, diagonal or curved image edges may be filtered along edges while texture is preserved along the edges.

Abstract: A method for providing hardware mandatory access control (MAC) may include coupling an input filter to a hardware core. The input filter may receive one or more labeled objects and may qualify the labeled objects based on a first label associated with each of the labeled objects. The input filter may strip the first label from each of the labeled objects to provide one or more input objects. The hardware core may receive the one or more input objects and may provide one or more output objects. An output filter may be coupled to the hardware core. The output filter may receive the one or more output objects and may associate to each of the one or more output objects a second label. Operations of the input filter and the output filter may be coordinated by a label manager.

Abstract: Embodiments for video content source resolution detection are provided. Embodiments enable systems and methods that measure video content source resolution and that provide image-by-image source scale factor measurements to picture quality (PQ) processing modules. With the source scale factor information, PQ processing modules can be adapted dynamically (on a picture-by-picture basis) according to the source scale factor information for better picture quality enhancement. In addition, embodiments provide source resolution detection that is minimally affected by video coding artifacts and superimposed content (e.g., graphics).

Abstract: A method for seamless transition between interlaced and progressive video profiles may include receiving at a video feeder a stream of video signals for displaying on a display device. The stream of video signals may include segments of one of interlaced fields or progressive video frames. During an interlaced stream, the interlaced fields may be directed to a deinterlacer, and an output of the deinterlacer may be directed to the display device. The output of the deinterlacer may be determined based on previously received interlaced fields from the video feeder. During a transition to a progressive stream, the progressive video frames may be directed to a frame store, and the output of the deinterlacer may be directed to the display device. During a progressive stream, the progressive video frames may be directed to the frame store, and previously stored frames may be directed to the display device.
