Wolfgang:
The denx.de web site looks great.
Where can someone get this PCI card? Do I have to contact Fujitsu
directly? Cost?
The Fujitsu CoralP evaluation board MB86295EB01? or did you use the
Coral PA?
I saw a posting that you also had some streaming video running. Tell me
more.
What resolution? 4CIF (full DVD)
What display? LCD SVGA (800x600) and/or VGA analog port?
Software MPEG decoder or does the Coral have a decoder?
Which player did you use?
Is all this covered in some release notes?
Was the katix stuff ever integrated into linux_2_4_development?
How does Wolfgang make a living if he spends all his time answering our
questions?
thanks,
Frank Bennett
