USB-TV MPEG-2 Recorder/Player Product Brief USB-TV SM2210 Reference Design Description The USB-TV SM2210 Reference Design is a USB dongle peripheral that makes it easy to capture and playback audio, video, and television signals on Microsoft Windows based personal computers equipped with USB ports. The USB-TV design can output MPEG video to either the computer display or a standard NTSC/PAL video monitor. Typical USB-TV applications include: ! Audio/Video Capture/Playback ! Still Image Capture ! TV Watching ! TV Timeshifting ! VCD/SVCD/ software DVD Playback ! VCD/SVCD/DVD Creation ! Video Editing ! Video Email ! Video Conferencing ! Video Surveillance ! Large screen presentations The main hardware components of the USB-TV board are a NTSC/PAL TV/FM tuner, Philips SAA7121 NTSC/PAL video encoder, Philips SAA7114 video decoder, the SM2210 video codec, a Cypress EZ-USB FXTM USB controller, an analog audio multiplexor, and IR sensor for optional remote control. The NTSC/PAL video decoder and encoder interface gluelessly to the SM2210's video port using ITU-R BT.601 and ITU-R BT.656 digital video data formats. The SM2210's host interface connects gluelessly to the Cypress USB controller for transferring MPEG-2 compressed video over the USB cable. The Audio multiplexor selects analog mono or stereo audio output from three different sources: mono audio from the TV tuner, stereo FM audio from the TV Tuner, and stereo audio from an external source.
