Kerry, you clearly have no grasp of the technology - you really should restict your comments on technology that you don't understand.

Your initial post about the TI DSP was just plain wrong. Your second post suggested that you'd started to grasp what I said, and realized that you were wrong.

But, I guess not - you just don't know enough about the technology to even know if you are right or wrong.

You are just guessing.

A DSP is just a special-purpose CPU. You said it was an encoder/decoder. That is just plain wrong.

It can be used as an encoder/decoder, or other completely different functions, or an encoder/decoder and other things, depending on how it is programmed. No different than your desktop computer. What you said is just as wrong as saying that a desktop computer is "just a wordprocessor". No it isn't - it can be lots of things, but without programming it isn't even a wordprocessor.

EDIG has no lock on programming for DSPs. Nobody NEEDS EDIG to make a DSP act as an encoder/decoder, as multiple encoder/decoders, or to manage flash memory. Whether or not anybody uses EDIG's software rather than writing their own is strictly an economic decision. Once that I am convinced will be resolved, in the case of high-volume manufacturers - in favor of the "build your own" decision.
