Interfacing a TI C6xxx DSP with a PC for Video Processing: Tips and Tricks

In summary, the person is working on their final year project using a TI C6xxx series DSP to process video. They are not concerned about the MPEG encoding aspect and are looking for help on how to interface the DSP with their PC. They mention using MATLAB and provide a link for more information and suggest looking at spec sheets on the TI website.

Hey guys ..

Been ages since I've been here but ya.

Anyway .. I'm doing my final year project at moment (wow .. i like registered on the forum back in my first year I think .. lol .. now I'm almost done).

Im using a TI C6xxx series DSP for it and I'm going to feed video into it. Now, my project really is the DSP work .. I;m not wrried about the MPEG encoding blah blah ..

I want to know how to actually interface the DSP and my PC. Obviously, I can't send the MPEG straight into the DSP. Is there any standard type software that will convert an MPEG movie into a bitstream so to allow me to send into the DSP>

This is the part of my project that I'm not really suppose to focus on but hey, it needs to be done and i was hoping somebody could help me put with it.

Thankeee kindly:biggrin:
