[MPlayer-dev-eng] SigmaDesign hardware support

[Philippe]

Hi,

Today I wrote to A'rpi about the SigmaDesign Hardware.

He told me to write this request to the dev mailing list.

I found the SDK for the following Sigma design hardware :

 - em8400 / em8401 -> Mpeg1/2 decoder
 - em8470 / em8471 -> Mpeg1/2/4 decode
 - em8475          -> the Xcard !

This SDK is a low level API. (I think it's not open source....) but there
are sources for everything except for 4 files which are wrapped in 4 kernel
modules.

If someone is interested in this SDK to write the needed MPlayer plugin (-vo
xcard / -ao xcard), drop me an email and I'll send you everything I've got.


Cheers

Philippe

sorry, but as i don't own any of these cards, a'm not able to write (test)
drivers for them.
you should mail to mplayer-dev-eng, to find someone interested.
