Micronas is providing a truly global solution that will play across ALL platforms using a wide range of video and audio codecs. The ST chip is MPEG-2 only and will only play with global DTV broadcasters and the current generation of MPEG-2 based cable plants. The ST chip is designed for cheap DTV receivers. The Micronas chips appears to be targeted at STBs and media centers.
