Non-Intra Frame Decoding

It was shown previously that the non-intra frame encoder built upon the basic building blocks of the intra frame encoder, with the addition of motion estimation and its associated support structures. This is also true of the non-intra frame decoder, as it contains the same core structure as the intra frame decoder with the addition of motion compensation support. Again, support for intra frame decoding is inherent in the structure, so I, P, and B frame decoding is possible. The decoder is shown in Figure 24.
