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

[Shahil]

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

mmmm MATLAB sounds yummy for this problem, http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/toolbox/tic6000/tic6000.html?/access/helpdesk/help/toolbox/tic6000/build28.html

also, you should be able to find some spec sheets here:
