I just thought I would clear some things up here. Mpeg Encoder= Takes an analogue video signal or an un-compressed digital video data stream as an input and outputs an MPEG data stream. You will not find this as a one chip solution. MPEG Decoder= Takes an MPEG data stream as an input and will output an analogue video signal or an un-compressed digital video data stream. You will possibly find this as a multiple chip solution depending on the quality you would like. Composite Video= Component, RGB or S- video that has been encoded using a composite encoder. One chip solution Regards Stuart O'Reilly ----- Original Message ----- From: "rad0" To: Sent: Monday, January 29, 2001 4:37 PM Subject: Re: [EE]: single chip MPEG video decoing > I'd like to know about: > > MPEG Decoders which > convert Analogue Signals (NTSC) to a MPEG Digital Format??? > > Is there a chip to do this?? > > Thanks... > > -- > http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different > ways.
