ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for decoding and displaying a progressive refresh bitstream, such as, for example, Motorola/GI HITS bitstream, is provided. The method avoids displaying artifacts caused by displaying incompletely decoded pictures after channel acquisition. After the channel acquisition, an entry picture, a P-picture with the refreshed I-slices at the top of the picture, is first displayed with all pixels below the refreshed I-slices zeroed (blacked) out. Then the subsequent P-pictures are displayed with all pixels below their respective refreshed I-slices zeroed out. Once a P-picture has been completely decoded, normal decoding process is started.
