مستخلص: Video decoding device is disclosed. The video decoding device comprises a demultiplexer, a first decoder and a controller. The demultiplexer receives a Transport Stream to recover video Packetized Elementary Stream (PES) to determine a presentation time stamp (PTS) and a decoding time stamp (DTS) in a PES header of the PES. The first decoder retrieves a video frame from the video PES to determine temporal reference of the video frame. The controller receives the PTS, the DTS, and the temporal reference to determine whether there is a missing video frame.

Claim: 1. A video decoding method, comprising: recovering video Packetized Elementary Stream (PES) to determine a presentation time stamp (PTS) and a decoding time stamp (DTS) in a PES header of the PES; retrieving a video frame from the video PES to determine temporal reference of the video frame; and determining whether there is a missing video frame according to the PTS, the DTS, and the temporal reference.
Claim: 2. The video decoding method of claim 1, further comprising: upon detection of the missing video frame, generating a replacement video frame to substitute for the missing video frame.
Claim: 3. The video decoding method of claim 2, wherein the generation of the replacement video frame comprises assigning a closest decodable video frame in a display order to be the replacement video frame.
Claim: 4. The video decoding method of claim 2, wherein the generation of the replacement video frame comprises generating a replacement video frame according to motion vectors of a decodable video frame and a temporal distance between the current video frame and the decodable video frame.
Claim: 5. The video decoding method of claim 4, wherein when the missing video frame or undecodable video frame is a reference frame with a dependent B-frame, the replacement video frame comprises only forward motion vectors, the decodable video frame is a preceding non-reference frame in display order, and the generation comprises extrapolating motion vectors of the preceding non-reference frame and another preceding video frame according to the temporal distance to generate the forward motion vectors of the replacement video frame.
Claim: 6. The video decoding method of claim 4, wherein when the missing video frame or undecodable video frame is a reference frame with reference to a decodable reference frame, the replacement video frame comprises only forward motion vectors, the decodable video frame is a preceding decodable reference frame in display order, and the generation comprises extrapolating motion vectors of the preceding decodable reference frame according to the temporal distance to generate the forward motion vectors of the replacement video frames.
Claim: 7. The video decoding method of claim 4, wherein when the missing video frame or undecodable video frame is a non-reference frame with a decodable reference frame, the replacement video frame comprises forward and backward motion vectors, and the generation comprises proportionating motion vectors of backward decodable reference frame of the missing video frame or undecodable non-reference frame according to the temporal distances between the preceding decodable reference frame and the undecodable video frame and between the succeeding decodable reference frame and the undecodable video frame, to generate the forward and backward motion vectors of the replacement video frame.
Claim: 8. The video decoding method of claim 2, further comprising: providing a historical syntax element of a previous video frame; receiving the current video frame to determine a current syntax element therein; determining whether a high-level syntax error is present in the current syntax element; and upon detection of the high-level syntax error, determining a replaced syntax element according to the historical syntax element to replace the current syntax element, wherein the high-level syntax error is a syntax error above a Macroblock layer.
Claim: 9. The video decoding method of claim 8, wherein the high-level syntax error is a picture-layer syntax error.
Claim: 10. The video decoding method of claim 8, wherein the previous video frame is in terms of the video decoding order.
Claim: 11. The video decoding method of claim 8, wherein the determination of the replacement syntax element comprises using the historical syntax element to estimate the correct syntax element and assigning the estimated result to be the replacement syntax element.
Claim: 12. A video decoding device capable of detecting a missing video frame, comprising: a demultiplexer receiving a Transport Stream to recover video Packetized Elementary Stream (PES) to determine a presentation time stamp (PTS) and a decoding time stamp (DTS) in a PES header of the PES; a first decoder retrieving a video frame from the video PES to determine temporal reference of the video frame; and a controller receiving the PTS, the DTS, and the temporal reference to determine whether there is a missing video frame.
Claim: 13. The video decoding device of claim 12, further comprising a second decoder, generating a replacement video frame to substitute for the missing video frame upon detection of the missing video frame.
Claim: 14. The video decoding device of claim 12, wherein the replacement video frame is generated according to a closest decodable video frame in a display order to be the replacement video frame.
Claim: 15. The video decoding device of claim 12, wherein the replacement video frame is generated according to motion vectors of a decodable video frame and a temporal distance between the current video frame and the decodable video frame.
