Abstract

The advent of the digital video revolution has created the need for a high-speed digital interface between consumer electronic devices in the home. Examples of this include the interface between a set-top box, a television, and a DVCR or camcorder using MPEG-2 transport streams, and the control and data between interactive games, computers and other devices. Clearly, an interface that supports the general transfer of data is required. The IEEE 1394 standard provides an optimum solution. This paper discusses our proposed implementation of a 1394 based solution and discusses its capabilities and operation in the interactive consumer ATV environment
