Don't know if your question is directed towards somebody in particular... Is HDTV going to be product Cube can benefit from in the future? Multiple new single-chip MPEG-2 encoders, the E4 that is, can be strung together to form an HDTV encoder. This is an interest of General Instruments. Single chip decoders are feasible about the time a 0.25 micron process comes about. Remember, the Grand Alliance format is the same as MPEG-2, only with 6 times as many samples (bytes) to process every frame. This also requires 12 Mbytes of dedicated DRAM, compared to only 2 Mbytes for today's MPEG-2 MP@ML chips found in satellite and DVD boxes. Some people will try it in only 8 Mbytes of DRAM (you can be sure that CompCore will try to claim this). I suppose Innovocain will try to announce a single-chip HDTV (MP@HL) decoder first.......
