Guest The PocketTV Team Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 Does anyone know if any of the new (or announced) Smartphones is equipped with the ATI Imageon 3200-series video accelerator chip ? We are about to release a new version of PocketTV Classic for Smartphone that will include the new optimizations mentionned here: http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/vie...pic.php?t=31333 and we will also include support for the ATI Imageon 3200-series, but this has not yet been tested on a Smartphone. For those who don't know, PocketTV is a free MPEG video player for Smartphone (see www.pockettv.com ).

Guest The PocketTV Team Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 Not that i've heard of... mhhhh... so no way to test. that's gonna be interesting to see if things works as they are supposed to, the first time a new Smartphone comes out with an ATI chip. i'll mention that to the ATI people, they probably have a couple of secret prototypes of new Smartphones with their chips in them :) so maybe they can run a few tests after we release our new version.
Guest midnight Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 hnmmm, none yet, and none announced as far as i'm aware, most prefer to choose cpu's with onboard multimedia acceleration rather than seperate co-processors, especially as the pressure will be on for other manufacturers to keep the size down now the C500 is launched. So i doubt we'll see any Imageon MS Smartphones (only my opinion of course) PS. in fact, i think its onlyu the mio's that use a seperate graphics co-processor, and they use the GoForce chips.

Guest midnight Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 yeh, exactly, seems like a form factor thing, smartphone devices are getting smaller, so the less processors/co-processors inside the better, and omap offer processors with radio stack and multimedia acceleration included
