The Visifier is a work in progress studying the implementation of an optimized MPEG-2 decoder using the VIS instruction set extension to the UltraSparc (V9) processor. This sequence is composed of an I-frame mpeg2 video stream (5 Mbit encoding) and a separate audio stream. The two are played simultaneously, but not synchronously.

Please note, for optimal performance, we recommend you install the demos on a local hard drive.
