Topic:		Hardware encoder for Divx
Author:		Eftychios

I am wondering how feasible it would be to actually build a hardware
encoder for DIVX. I assume that the hardware could be pluged in the PCI
slot and a driver could be used to drive it by redirecting the various
calls to the processor on the card. 

My questions are:

1. Is there currently a stand allone processor that speciallizes in
multimedia instructions that would suit the needs of the encoder?
2. If there is such a processor, would it actually encode significantly
faster than the cpu and how much faster. I would guess that at least the
card should ne able to cut in half the time required to encode a typical
dvd movie.
3. If there is such a processor, how much it costs? Economic feasibility
is a must, not only for commercial reasons.


Well I cannot think of anythign else right now so I will wait for your
answers and see.

Regards

Eftychios Eftychiou

The Philips Trimedia chip is designed for this kind of task, and there
is a fellow porting DivX Deux to a prototype.

However, don't bug him for status reports.  Let him get something done.
He has been kind enough to send status reports onto the mayo development
mailing list.

Probably the best way to do this would be to use a PCI card with an
FPGA.  If you want to know how to build this then mail me.

Topic:		ogg as paket format?

Ogg is also a container format. So when comparing Ogg and QuickTime, I
don't think there's any reason to use Ogg.
