ZRAN up 50% over the past week. BIG Toshiba win.

C-Cube is a communications company, right?

Zoran and Toshiba. Cube won't have 3D audio or DTS until after the first of the year. The advantage of software and a chip that can be programmed.

Based on Zoran's StandardPlus(TM) design methodology, the Vaddis III extends beyond the compression standards to accommodates enhanced functions such as Dolby Digital, DTS and Multi-channel MPEG pass-through, 3D sound, Karaoke, Video Trickplays and more.

And the 16-Mbit SDRAM interface..................

Patented Memory Interface - Reducing Memory and Cost
The Vaddis III decoder requires only a single 16-Mbit SDRAM memory for full operation. This Zoran's patented scheme reduces the memory requirements of a DVD system thus dramatically reducing the overall cost when compared to competing solutions.

Toshiba had planned to use a Zoran Audio chip, but the other chips were supposed to be Toshiba's own.
