JPEG2000 (and in particular the ADV202 chips inside the Tzero box) allow wireless HD connectivity to happen. The very small signal degredation that occurs due to JPEG2000 compression might be highly acceptable (or likely the degredation will not even be noticed) if one does not wish to run the cabling inside their existing walls and having a true plug and play solution for equipment not necessarily located physically right next to each other.
To learn more about the amazing ADV202 (Analog Devices JPEG2000 compression chip), see http://www.analog.com/ADV202. It is currently the lowest cost HD video compression/decompression chipset solution on the market.]]>Sep 6th 2006 12:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/Analog Devices, Inc.(ADI) is a highly respected semiconductor company and has been designing Analog, Digital, and Mixed Signal (both Analog and Digital circuits in one device) semiconductor ICs for more than 40 years. While not a household name, more than 70% of the digital still cameras on the market utilize ADI Analog Front End (AFE) chips to digitize CCD arrays (which produce an analog signal.) And while marketeers of consumer products tend to tout "digital this" and "digital that" as being the greatest...we still have to interface to an analog world...the real world. Although "Analog and Digital Devices" might be a more appropriate name for the company, it is a mouthful and like I mentioned previously, the company has been around for 40+ years with the same name.]]>Sep 6th 2006 12:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/Sep 6th 2006 1:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/Sep 6th 2006 1:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/wireless-hdmi-over-uwb-heck-yes/- Tyler McPheeters

For example, when any discontinued audio streaming occurs, human may hear the intermittent sounds easily, and result in the mismatch of video and audio signals.
I wonder whether such device has any buffer mechanisms used to restore “to-be-executed-streams” in advance, and maintain playback smoothly in the wireless environments. (The fact of unstable throughput on wireless networking is not avoidable, I guess.)
