>> However why is the VideoCD 2.0 compliant listed as a feature when > there is little interest domestically in this. IDB is an international product, and as such, must contain features necessary for these markets. As you mention, VideoCD support is IMHO, a requirement in the far east. >> Object-Oriented Active Movie are you saying that it MUST support MPEG2 to meet this standard? MPEG2 is not required for activemovie. It is required for the DVD 1.0 specification. ActiveMovie is a Win32 (i.e. 95 and NT) multimedia environment which is media neutral. >> appeared that external decryption chips were required for MPEG2 play? It depends on the OEM--Oak is customer friendly and will work with the OEM's needs/desires. >> We act on what is provided us by the various wire services. I understand, BUT you should be careful is saying something is superior/inferior site unseen. >> Can you tell us why ZRAN was selected over OAKT by Compaq? Can't comment on this. >> Has there been serious interest in the product? IDB contains tremendous technology in an environment (ActiveMovie) which everyone is interested in, but few (other than Oak) have software solutions for. As such, it has attracted considerable interest from anyone who sees or hears about it (I can't mention names, so don't even ask). Would the readers ofd this forum be interested in a layman's overview of why DVD in ActiveMovie is so superior/different?
