This page lists MPEG decoders that are implemented in hardware or have hardware assists. It is guaranteed to out of date and incomplete, but it is a good starting point for people looking for an MPEG decoder. In the lists below, the emphasis is finding boards with a device driver and application developer's SDK so that you can write your own applications that can play MPEG streams from a local disk or a remote system using TCP/IP. The lists are organized by platform and indicate which OS are supported.
