Hi All,
Can anybody suggest how to address this issue:
If I develop HDTV software decoder which generates raw YUV data at  rate
over 93MegaBytes/sec (for size 1920x1080), how do I take this data to
display in HDTV terminal for checking subjective quality.
The scenario is like explained below:
Source material is decoded YUV data generated by our own HDTV decoder. The
processing need is as shown below:
_______     ____________        _____________
|      |    |           |       |            |
|YUV   |--->| Some      |       |            |
|4:2:0 |    |           |------>|  SMPTE292  |
|______|    | Transcoder|       |  signal    |
            |   ??      |       |     or     |
            |___________|       | Y Pb Pr    |
   	                          | component  |
                                |____________|
YUV data is in main memory of desktop PC (RAM), a transcoder (assume it is
available) reads it from this memory (may be through PCI bus) and converts
it into HDTV compliant signal.
Can anyone suggest any such Transcoder which can solve this problem?
