Look promising on a low-cost H.264 decoding hardware.HKEPC said:During Computex Taipei 2006, Intel launched the newest 965 family chipset, including the greatly improved G965 IGP. According to Richard Malinowski, Vice president of the mobility group and crop. Manager of the chipset group, Intel is now trying to change the bad image of IGP. The new G965 IGP supports for DirectX 9 and Pixel Shader 2.0, enhancing the performance. Intel ClearVideo technology, a new feature of G965, included Enhanced High-Definition Video playback, Advanced De-interlacing, ProcAmp color control, and Advanced Digital Display Support, allows user to experience the new IGP power.
Featured in hardware decoding, Intel Clear Video supports for WMV9B (iDCT/VC1), MPEG-2, H.264 etc. in hardware, user could able to real time encode MPEG-II when playing HD stream video, with a very low loading of CPU. Support up to 1080p resolution and Picture in Picture, HD video and SD video can be displayed in the same time. Advanced de-interlacing algorithms provide enhanced picture clarity for interlaced content. It may be the best solution for providing sharp and cheap HD video. In addition, the build-in ProcAmp color control settings allow user adjustment of hue, saturation, brightness, and contrast.
Intel Clear Video would support for HDMI, HPCP, and DUI. A single interface is now capable to deliver multimedia from PC to many electronic products. It is a cheap solution to HD video and further minimizes the computer size. The excellent performance of G965 would definitely lead the new age of IGP, with more silent and power save.
