ViXS talks about their chip in the TiVo HD - and TiVo Lovers!
The image is a capture from the current ViXS.com homepage. Notice what the top news item is? Yeah, they actually linked to my review. Of all the reviews out there, they linked mine. Damn. I feel all special and stuff.
OK, that’s enough basking. (Seriously, thanks ViXS.)
More interesting is the second item, a press release about the ViXS XCode-2115 used in the TiVo HD. An excerpt:
Dual stream MPEG2 encoding in the TiVo HD is achieved using the ViXS XCode™ 2115 IC which provides a high performance cost effective solution TiVo was looking for when designing the TiVo HD. The ViXS IC provides a number of key benefits which enhance the capabilities of the TiVo HD DVR:
â— Single chip with dual channel MPEG2 encoding for efficient physical space utilization of PCB
â— High video quality with multiple bitrate options for optimizing disk space utilization
â— Excellent filtering capabilities to deal with poor analog broadcast
â— Support for custom data required by TiVo PVRs
