Has anybody knowledge about the processor/"video" performance of these remotes?
If I want to display "live TV" it is only possible to give 1-2 pictures/sec.
TSU9600 is only allowing with this frames per second a resolution of 320x240; otherwise grey screen.
Is TSU9800 having a faster processor?

Thank you in advance

There are not many differances between the 9600 and the 9800, my best geuss is that they have the same processor.. there my be an up date to the firmware some time to make the video images a little faster..
Pronto still one of the best Wi-Fi Remotes,

The TSU9300 will support it via ProntoScript, but not the TSU9200.

It is claimed that the 9300 does not do ProntoScript.

The important feature difference is obviously not the processor.
This means TSU9800 is not having a better frame rate.

I can´t believe the limitation are caused by the firmware. If yes, it would be nice if next upgrade is solving this. Today the processor is cheap and shouldn´t be the reason for limitation either.

I´missing: Processor? / graphic performance for image streaming
WPA2 (planed for this year)
TSU9600: scroll wheel (like TSU9400); next genration comming; this year
WIFI N standard (300Mbit)
sound streaming, mono is ok

The limitaion is not the processor or firmware. It is functionality. There is no support for loading video - just individual images. Converting video frame by frame to individual images then displaying consumes so much more processing power than processing video.

Peter is right. AAAARGH! I HAD A HUGE BRAIN FART.

The 9300 does not support ProntoScript but does support the WIFI-based extenders.

To Peter,

if displaying picture by picture is more consuming processor power it is a processor performance problem.
This should be solved by a stronger processor.
Target should be 640x480 with 6-8 pictures per second.
This is not only for "Live TV" use. Also if you want to disply a complexive makro with progressing bar it would be much nicer. A changing from page A to B could be programmed without jerking if you use 10 pictures for steps between. Because the price of the remotes are not falling Philips can buy the processors with better performance at same price like the old versions two years ago.

I doubt that your typical desktop processor could display more than a few frames per second if they were separate images. Try loading an HTML page with JPGs that are 640 x480 and see how many will display in a second. MPG video is what you want to be loading not separate images.

A progress bar is completely different as it is usually the one image being modified.
Similarly Adobe Flash video is also very simple.

my PC's browser does about 4 FPS maximum with 640x480.

Although not having a FPU really will hold back any video performance.

I think Xwindows can run on the pronto ?! once I get ftpd runnning.
DIY it the right way

To Peter:
Yes, I understand. MPG video would be the best. But TSU9600 is not able to run MPG video; only single pictures are taken of this video stream. I´m not shure but I think this is limitation by Javascript. The only way I see for better "video" quality is to increase the resolution and/or FPS. Any progress is a help. Also 640x480 at 2 FPS, or 320x240 at 4FPS.
Is my knowledge correct or is there any other way for "video" improovement?

to Pulse-R:
Nice result. What processor, graphic card, operating system are you using?
