Unicoi Systems’ IP Media Reference Design

Complete silicon and software solution for building next-generation IP media players

Unicoi Systems’ IP Media Reference Design brings the excitement of digital media, including movies, photos and music, to virtually any screen in your home or office. Imagine using home wireless networks or portable mass storage devices, such as iPods, MP3 players, USB Flash drives and SD (Secure Digital) cards, to deliver high definition, high fidelity media to audio systems and display devices. Unicoi’s IP Media Reference Design allows consumer electronics OEMs to develop powerful solutions faster, more affordably, and with more options. Key features of the reference design include:

  • Complete, ready-to-manufacture reference design built on a powerful dual core processor
  • A media player that handles popular digital media formats including MP3, WMV, MPEG-2, MPEG-4,
    JPEGs, H.264  and more
  • Supports video resolutions up to 720p or 1080i via component and HDMI outputs
  • Versatile wired (USB 2.0, 10/100 Ethernet, MMC/SD) and wireless (WiFi, HSDPA, WiMAX) support
  • Intuitive browser user interface with international language support to view websites, get email or download music and videos
  • A CIFS-based file manager to organize digital media from devices throughout your home
  • A SIP-based VoIP softphone with instant messaging and presence to take advantage of low-cost Internet calling
Worry-free operation

Unlike most media players today that suffer from the same problems that plague the PC - crashed hard drives, complicated setup, expensive operating systems, corruptible moving parts, confusing operation and myriad security issues - devices built on Unicoi's IP Media Reference Design offer worry-free operation. It has no moving parts. Instead of a corruptible hard drive, the reference design uses Flash memory, and supports physical storage solutions such as USB mass storage, SD/MMC and compact flash. Maintenance-free operation; without the worries that come with multiple, moving parts.
