Stand alone MPEG-2 encoder.

Post by G4EWJ » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:13 am

This promising article on a stand alone MPEG-2 encoder using an SAA6752 is dated last December. Does anyone know if any more progress has been made?

Sorry Brian, I have been meaning to reply to this ages ago...

The project appears to built on the Philips SAA6752 part (208 pins which is just about manageable). This is one of the few parts that does not need and NDA to access the full datasheet.

I will email you the schematic, and if someone can point out how and where, I will upload the 4MB of PDFs into file space (if this forum has any).

Anyone know where to buy some of these parts ? they appear to just be obsolete...

Regards,

Mark

If i remember correctly Olivier managed to 'aquire' some of these chips from scrap boards so maybe not easy to get hold of...
I've certainly not found any during a long google session.

I have a couple of encoder chipsets from early terrestrial HDD recorders but all of them have no data released... a real shame.
