Re: Pipe Dream MPEG2 SD streams are at 3.5Mbps to 4.5 Mbps, HD is at roughly 19Mbps. MPEG4\AVC\WM9 promises to half that, so you're looking at about 10Mbps per HD stream. 3 TV's in the home plus a data pipe = 32Mbps.
When that happens, life will be good.

Cheyenne, WY | Joe, I was referring to the Caps that ISP's put on there accounts mostly.
Even if they do give you a full 40mbps, a cap would totally ruin it. Since the bandwith is so high, and if you watched streaming TV shows, you would hit your cap very fast. |

We have it running in our lab at 7 Mbps. |
|
| MPEG4 HD at 7Mbps using which Codec?
Jeff |
|
| AVC |
|
| Very interesting... all PC based? or any other devices decoding the content?

|
| Special lab hardware but no reason it can't be productized for PC's, settop boxes, etc. |
|
| I've seen AVC demos, but nothing "real" yet. I hope to see some progress with AVC at Supercomm 2003.
