Of course. But, one of us has spent months on finding the components that
have the nescessary computing power, don't make any noise and are supported
by linux.

This PC costs some hundred euro and consumes about 100 W.

I haven't validated prices for the MPEG decoder chips, yet, but from what
I've seen it seems that the full device should be cheaper than the PC
(though not that flexible ;-). From the data sheets that I've at hand, I'd 
say that the device would consume about 5-7 W.


Ciao,

Tobias
