[MPlayer-dev-eng] HW for open standard video and audio formats

[Svante Signell]

Hi,

I'm about to announce some Master Thesis subjects at my school on
hardware encoders and decoders for open standard video and audio as well
as container formats replacing the licence bound MPEG2,MPEG4,MP3 etc
standards. Below is what I have found so far:

Video: Ogg Theora, Nut?
Audio: Ogg Vorbis, flac?
Container: Matroska, Ogg, Nut?
Any open standard for 5.1 (or higher) audio available?

What about HDTV resolutions?
Comments, corrections and other ideas are appreciated.

Best regards,
