Control circuit of multimedia device and data processing method thereof

1. A data processing method of a multimedia device, the multimedia device pausing playback of multimedia data in response to a pause signal, the method comprising:

buffering the multimedia data before the pause signal is received to obtain prerecorded multimedia data;

writing the prerecorded multimedia data into a storage unit in response to the pause signal;

reading the prerecorded multimedia data from the storage unit in response to a playback signal; and

playing the prerecorded multimedia data, including:

searching the prerecorded multimedia data for a target frame according to a decoding order of the multimedia data; and

playing the prerecorded multimedia data from the target frame as a starting point,

wherein the multimedia device comprises a video decoder that searches for the target frame, the method further comprising:

recording a decoding state of the video decoder in response to the pause signal;

wherein the step of playing the prerecorded multimedia data further comprises:

determining whether to reactivate the video decoder according to the decoding state.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the target frame is a frame that is currently being decoded when the multimedia device receives the pause signal.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the step of playing the prerecorded multimedia data further comprises:

when it is determined not to reactivate the video decoder in the step of determining whether to reactivate the video decoder according to the decoding state, determining a search time according to a data amount and format of the prerecorded multimedia data; and

when the video decoder does not find the target frame after the search time ends, controlling the video decoder to stop searching for the target frame and decoding the prerecorded multimedia data.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the multimedia device further comprises an audio decoder, and the step of playing the prerecorded multimedia data further comprises:

when it is determined not to reactivate the video decoder in the step of determining whether to reactivate the video decoder according to the decoding state, controlling the audio decoder to suspend a decoding process; and

when the video decoder finds the target frame, controlling the audio decoder to decode the prerecorded multimedia data.

5. The method according to claim 1 , the multimedia device comprising a video decoder and a frame buffer unit, the method further comprising:

writing a previous frame of a frame currently being decoded into the frame buffer unit in response to the pause signal;

wherein, the frame currently being decoded is a frame that the video decoder is currently decoding when the multimedia device receives the pause signal.

6. A control circuit of a multimedia device, the multimedia device pausing playback of multimedia data in response to a pause signal, the control circuit comprising:

a transport stream processing unit, parsing a multimedia signal to generate the multimedia data; and

a control unit, performing operations of:

buffering the multimedia data before the pause signal is received to obtain prerecorded multimedia data;

writing the prerecorded multimedia data into a storage unit in response to the pause signal;

reading the prerecorded multimedia data from the storage unit in response to a playback signal; and

playing the prerecorded multimedia data;

the control circuit further comprising:

a video decoder, coupled to the transport stream processing unit;

wherein the control unit further performs operations of:

searching the prerecorded multimedia data for a target frame according to a decoding order of the multimedia data;

playing the prerecorded multimedia data from the target frame as a starting point;

recording a decoding state of the video decoder in response to the pause signal; and

determining whether to reactivate the video decoder according to the decoding state when the prerecorded multimedia data is played.

7. The control circuit according to claim 6 , wherein the target frame is a frame that is currently being decoded when the multimedia device receives the pause signal.

8. The control circuit according to claim 6 , wherein the control unit further performs operations of:

when it is determined not to reactivate the video decoder, determining a search time according to a data amount and format of the prerecorded multimedia data; and

when the video decoder does not find the target frame after the search time ends, controlling the video decoder to stop searching for the target frame and decoding the prerecorded multimedia data.

9. The control circuit according to claim 6 , further comprising:

an audio decoder, coupled to the video decoder;

wherein, the control unit further comprises operations of:

when it is determined not to reactivate the video decoder, controlling the audio decoder to suspend a decoding process; and

when the video decoder finds the target frame, controlling the audio decoder to decode the prerecorded multimedia data.

10. The control circuit according to claim 6 , wherein the multimedia device further comprises a frame buffer unit that stores image data to be played, and the control circuit further comprises:

a video decoder; and

the control unit further performs operations of:

writing a previous frame of a frame currently being decoded into the frame buffer unit in response to the pause signal;

wherein, the frame currently being decoded is a frame that the video decoder is currently decoding when the multimedia device receives the pause signal.
