Mirics, NVIDIA Bring Software-based TV to More PC Platforms

(Technology News, 30 Sep 2009 )

Mirics has developed a global broadcast TV solution for NVIDIA GPUs (graphics processing units) by leveraging the massively parallel NVIDIA CUDA architecture for its FlexiTV software-based receiver. The universal low-cost TV receiver can now be implemented on entry-level PCs that have CUDA-enabled NVIDIA GPUs.

Optimum use of system processing resources is achieved by running certain FlexiTV algorithms on NVIDIA CUDA-enabled GPUs. This enables even low-cost, entry level PCs to support global TV reception using Mirics’ FlexiTV technology. Since FlexiTV uses separate CUDA compute engines for video decoding, users can enjoy high quality Standard and High Definition broadcast TV reception without additional hardware. Unlike conventional PC TV receivers, FlexiTV offers a single platform which is software reconfigurable to receive free-to-air terrestrial TV regardless of regional variations.
