A decoding system comprises N different decoders each having a unique circuitry that is different from the circuitries of the other N−1 decoders. The decoders each generate at least one texel value based on an input encoded texel block. A value selector is configured to selectively output at least N texel values from at least one of the decoders based on the position of the at least N texels relative a boundary of a texel block comprising at least one of the at least N texels. A pixel calculator calculates a pixel value of a decoded pixel based on the at least N selected texel values from the value selector.
