Apparatus for encoding/decoding a HDTV signal for e.g. terrestrial transmission includes a priority selection processor for parsing compressed video codewords between high and low priority channels for transmission. A compression circuit responsive to high definition video source signals provides hierarchically layered codewords CW representing compressed video data and associated codewords T. defining the types of data represented by the codewords CW. The priority selection processor, responsive to the codewords CW and T, counts the number of bits in predetermined blocks of data and determines the number of bits in each block to be allocated to the respective channels. Thereafter the processor parses the codewords CW into high and low priority codeword sequences wherein the high and low priority codeword sequences correspond to compressed video data of relatively greater and lesser importance to image reproduction respectively.       Recently Added Patents Food thickening agent, method for producing food thickening agent Removable microfluidic flow cell Method for controlling a hybrid vehicle and hybrid vehicle Method and apparatus for orchestrating policies in service model of service-oriented architecture system Dental compositions including organogelators, products, and methods Modular building unit which has an angle of 105 degrees between the floor panel and a wall panel Managing metadata for graph-based computations   Randomly Featured Patents High-voltage power supply Blending station apparatus Spotting tip Fermentation process for preparing antibiotics mureidomycins A, B, C and D Photographic camera having long focal length objective Electrical box and mounting bracket assembly Method and system for facilitating location-based services Active combine rotor deceleration Magnesium peroxide difunctional components for cellulose derivatives and associated methods Process for improved magnetic beneficiation of clays © 2006-2008 PatentGenius.
