McMannic - Re: " Mpeg-2 is a bit out dated. Quicktime has been adopted as the standard for Mpeg-4. 50 to 1 compression."

MPEG 2 is the standard for both Direct TV and Echostar Satellite broadcasting, the unified HDTV standard and the current DVD standard.

Whatever the MPEG-x standard is, it will most likely be encoded on Intel based processors with KNI extensions.

Funny that we haven't seen any 3DNOW applications for MPEG-xyz encoding !

Jim,

Re: MPEG-2 real time encoding.

Well, I think it's very impressive.

MPEG encoding (in real time is very CPU intensive indeed.

I think it will really help sales of the Pentium III.

Does anyone else think this could be the Killer App for the PIII's.

Perhaps they will have some of those midnight sales for all the folks

to line so they can be the first ones in the neighbourhood?

Regards,

Kash
