Las Vegas, nevada --. LSI Logic Corp.(Milpitas, Ca.) used the Consumer Electronics Show here to announce availablity of a set of video processing technologies, called DoMiNoX, aimed at a range of networked multimedia applications in consummer entertainment and connected iappliance systems to complement its standard and custom IC capabilities in these markets.

Consisting of a set of patented video processing algorithms and technologies that can either be expressed in software and executed with standard RISC and DSP processors, or has hardwired functions incorporated into an advanced SoC.

The first functions included in the algorithm toolkit include: the TrueScan Pro: Motion Compensated De-Interlacing (MCDI) algorithms for high quality progressive scans in DVD and other media playback; the TrueViewPro Motion Compensated Temporal Filtering (MCTF) algorithms for clearer video for viewing and recording, from any analog or digital source; and .
PerfectViewPro, an MPEG compression technology for optimizing video quality and increasing storage capacity, allowing more media content to be stored - faster and at better quality - to a hard disk drive or DVD disk. It allows100% digital format conversion for high quality conversion back and forth amongst a wide variety of formats, including content from a digital (miniDV and Digital 8) camcorder to a hard disk drive or DVD disk.

The DoMiNoFX algorithms have been incorporated into a number of LSI Logic ICs aimed at a variety of digital entertainment devices such as DVD players and recorders, digital and high-definition TVs, personal/digital video recorders, video editing devices (PC) and set-top boxes. Among the ICs making use of the algoritms include the previously announced DMN-8600 and DMN-8650.
