Ati W2284

[bLiTz^]

Hey there,


Was doing alot of research online about the graphic chipset from ATI on Athena but not even ATi has any infomation on their Webby.


Anyone know the specs of this w2284 chipset? Would really like to have more information on the chipset.....


Cheers

i agree with you, i tried to find info on the chipset to but i couldn't so i was like fu*k it and bought it anyways :D

Interesting thing, I was looking for Intel® PXA270 and found out all things are over to Marvell. Pretty confusing but ATI is just part of that chip, not a special chip

[stupiddog]

I saw some posts at the Coreplayer (comercial version of TCPMP) forum that ATI has refused to make the specs of that chip available to the Coreplayer developers, effectively crippling the chip for being used my alternative media players.

that very intersting, will i think we all need to find a player that ati likes ;)

ATI W2284 not only for processing video and graphics, but also for handling the camera. Particularly, calculating autofocus algorithms and settings of automatic white balance are done with the help of this graphic subsystem

hmm... i think tt is known.... But if i m not wrong my old blueangel also uses ATI chipset...

problem is like example nVidia's Goforce 5500 is known to have a clock speed of 150 to 200 mhz....

how much is ATI's W2284??? Secondly does it have hardware encoding N decoding of H.264 videos??

Blah blah blah... Lots of qns left unanswered.

Anyone knows??

Cheers....

Not very definitive I know, but never really found much else about them since last year and I believe ATI is remaining tight lipped for a reason...also not releasing info to Corecodec so they can support the chipset properly.


Notice also in the 3rd link, 2282 is listed,......but where is the mention of 2284?

I give up with ATI/AMD/Imageon....Imagine if we could get the best out of it via hardware decoding...how sweet that would be.:)

Just have to settle for using the Imageon driver for now, as it still yields visually better results thatn Rawframe buffer mode or direct draw and outperforms both in benchmarks fo speed.

Sorry can't help any more than that. Good luck on finding anything else useful.

no probs mackaby007......

Hmm i wonder...... mayb W2284 is actually a Modified Imageon W2282...

W2282 supports 3MP Cam.....

That's what I thought too. ;)

Ive noticed a real delay between image and sound when playing some games.
Games in question are FIFA 2002 from EA Sports and also Smart Tennis from SIMBSOFT.

Did anybody noticed something similar??

Any news? I'm waiting for optimized Ati W2284 driver for HTC Athena... May be it will be supported in CorePlayer...

Hey, thinks for your work.I'm sorry I don't konw how to help you.But i think it maybe like qualcomm 7200's graphics chip.because the first ppc phone base on qualcomm 7200 is kaiser/TyTN II has the same problem as our 7500 at first.but someone solved it by modfy the 7201a driver for diamond for it.and the 7200 is the first product after ati sold the handheld products to qualcomm.so i think they maybe a little like.
i'm sorry for my poor english!
