Quoth Joe Greco on Wed, 13 November: : it should be much easier to do a 320 * 200 display (64000 pixels, : and at 16 bit depth that's 128Kbytes of data) as opposed to a 1024 * 768 : display (786432 pixels, and at 24 bit depth that's 2.4Mbytes of data). IIRC, NTSC runs at 352x240, but 12 bits is plenty for color. That's ~1 Mbit/frame uncompressed, ->~100 Kbit/frame MPEG-2. (Most high-budget films are recorded 24 celluloid fps.) DSS uses 3Mbit/sec to encode Pay Per View channels, which sounds about right.
