[FFmpeg-devel] Question about parallelizing h264 decoding

[mark cox]

I found this article while doing a google for 'cabac', "Parallel
Decoding of Context-Based Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Codes Based on
Most Probable Symbol Prediction"  by Chung-Hyo KIM1 and  In-Cheol
PARK. From the abstract.

"a prediction scheme is proposed that enhances overall decoding
performance by decoding two binary symbols at a time. A CABAC decoder
based on the proposed prediction scheme improves the decoding
performance by 24% compared to conventional decoders."
