Drivers and utilities are available from Intel's World Wide Web site (see Section 5.2). 1.9.2 VESA/ATI Multimedia Channel Connector The motherboard has an optional 40-pin VESA/ATI Multimedia Channel connector that uses 26 pins for the VESA standard bus and 12 pins for the ATI Enhanced Visual Architecture bus. The connector features a shared frame buffer interface and a Local Peripheral Bus (LPB) with a bidirectional interface that supports video companion devices like MPEG/live video decoders. 1.9.3 Brooktree Video Capture Processor The motherboard features an optional Brooktree Bt829A Video Capture Processor for digitizing analog NTSC/PAL/SECAM input signals from TV tuners, VCRs, cameras, and other sources of composite or Y/C video. The Bt829A has the mixed signal circuitry required to convert an analog composite signal into a scaled digital video stream supporting several video formats, resolutions and frame rates. The Bt829A features include: • Single-chip composite/S-Video NTSC/PAL/SECAM to YCrCb digitizer • Square pixel and CCIR601 resolution for NTSC, PAL, and SECAM • Chroma comb filtering • Horizontal and vertical filtered scaling • Programmable hue, brightness, saturation, and contrast • User-programmable cropping of the video window • 2x oversampling • Two-wire I2C bus interface • 8- or 16-bit pixel interface • Automatic NTSC/PAL format detection • Automatic gain control 20
