Unified Video Decoder (UVD, previously called Universal Video Decoder) is the name given to AMD's dedicated video decoding ASIC. There are multiple versions implementing a multitude of video codecs, such as H.264 and VC-1.
UVD was introduced with the Radeon HD 2000 Series and is integrated into some of AMD's GPUs and APUs. UVD occupies a considerable amount of the die surface at the time of its introduction[1] and is not to be confused with AMD's Video Coding Engine (VCE).
As of AMD Raven Ridge (released January 2018), UVD and VCE were succeeded by Video Core Next (VCN).
