The epson chip does NOT have a PCI interface on board, so a PCI bridge chip is there to support PCI operation -- In short, if you want to use PCI, it is available by activating it with a DIP switch. I did use it, and it works.

I am not sure about playing video beacuse I have not performance-checked it , and as you pointed out, it is unaccelerated. It should be able to display whatever you throw at it though, so if you can do the MPEG decoding completely in software on the MPC side, you should be fine. Do you work at Turk Telecom or are you just a customer ? What is your project, if I may ask ? -Federico -- _________________________________________ -- "'Problem' is a bleak word for challenge" - Richard Fish Muad'Dib of Caladan (Federico L.
