OK, which multimedia interface really useful for projects
of type Z on system X?
1) Common video formats NTSC/HDTV/PAL?
2) Hardware image compression/decompression?
3) High quality (digital) audio in/out?
4) FAX in/out?
5) A CCD camera for video in/out (video conferencing)?
6) MIDI in/out (is this useful for control of
external peripherals other than music synths?)?
7) Other peripheral controlers?
8) Anything else???
In other words, if you could talk to the companies designing
the next generation of multimedia processors and interfaces,
what would your "dream system" be?
