2.1.1 Bitstream

  • 2 minutes to read

An LZXD bitstream is encoded as a sequence of aligned 16-bit (or 2-byte) integers stored in the least-significant-byte to most-significant-byte order, also known as byte-swapped, or little-endian, words. Given an input byte stream in hex 1A, 2B, 3C, 4D, 5E, 6F, …, the output byte stream MUST be as follows:

Lower address

                            Higher address

2B

1A

4D

3C

6F

5E
