DVD/MP3/DIVX PLAYER
Open Dream Box (c)(r)(tm) by [[RzR]] 2004
I am looking for some OpenSource hardware player to replace my Laptop… here some hints.
Here are the specs for the “Open Dream Box”
- Hardware :
- * Silent (no loudy fan) , no Heaty, low consuption
- * small box (opt portable) w/ Frontal Buttons and Plugs (rear and front)
- * Input control : Frontal panel (skip track, skip folder, vol …) + Remote Control
- * Supply : Int Voltage or Batteries
- * LCD : ID3 tag (usable w/out tv)
- * Media : CDR CDRW DVD DVDR* miniCD, (opt: fireware, pcmcia, usb, multicard)
- Audio :

- Video :
- * mpeg 1 & 2 & 4, Divx, xvid, h26x, Real Video, quicktime
- * output video : Svideo, YUV, RGB, Peritel, VGA (opt Antena Modulation out)
(opt Radio+TV antenna in) DV output

<grompf> RzR: manque une entrée analogique 6 canaux pour decodeur externe. <grompf> RzR : manque prises frontales : video in, audio in L+R+TOSlink <grompf> firewire pour le stockage externe, connection dv et table montage <grompf> RzR : faut aussi un DSP 32bits entiers (pour les dinos) ou un DSP 32bits flottant (pour les djeunz) telechargeable avec les e/s audio num qui vont bien. <grompf> RzR : faut aussi un mux d'entrée qui va bien

CHIPSETS
TODAY ON THE MARKET, It seems that most SOC (System On Chip) DVD players are made around the same architecture and most of the source are Closed
- SigmaDesigns' EM85xx chipset / Real Magic (ARM)
which support cuLinux (and other LibreSoftware like xvid & mplayer)
which *may* support a Closed Source OS called DeltaOS : http://www.coretek.com.cn/english/product/deltaos.htm
- ESS 6168FA Vibratto (Transcontinent)
- LSI Logic DMN-8602
