The Working Group is discussing possible protocols for loading data into a decoder via a streaming-mode protocol. The goal is to allow loading large volumes of data to a decoder over the rails without having to remove the decoder from the engine. This can be useful in upgrading the decoder's firmware, loading sound data etc. This topic was created on May 22, 2004 after initial discussions within the Working Group. Gil Fuchs is coordinating this topic. Development of a working prototype and asssociated documents for this topic is expected to take six months. Work-in-progress drafts and background information will be posted here periodically.
