EBS
provides the technology to develop the next
generation digital home consumer electronics
gadgets. EBS provides the basic building
blocks for advanced devices which will
become integral part of a digital home such
as super-personal video recorders (PVR).
Such a PVR will be CE-style box with
multi-gigabytes storage capable of invisibly
downloading and managing TV, music and
on-demand movies.
Recent Gartner report predicts that advanced
DVD players and PVRs dominate future digital
home over a Media Center PC.
EBS and Gartner share the same believe that
a networked CE machine, such as DVD
players/recorders, personal video recorder (PVRs)
and the next generation consoles, will
become the dominant device in the digital
home. These class of devices will form the
core multimedia servers having a distinct
advantages over PCs. |

By 2010, the number of
digital homes will match or surpass the number of
homes with computer networks today. The market for
new and old digital home products such as digital
cameras, HDTVs, and MP3 players, portable media
centers, media hubs will grow at rates ranging from
20% to well over 50% annually. EBS will play a
crucial part in this development.
A UPnP enabled networking will dramatically extend
the functionality of these standalone systems,
advanced file systems like ERTFS ProPlus64 will
enable them to store and enable real time feeding of
audio and video content around the house. RTSMB
which is EBS’s CIFS / SMB software stack which provides Window's network neighbourhood or Linux's samba functionaly to an embedded device, offers a new and powerful role in this scheme; it
provides seamless availability of audio video
resources across the digital home. |

ERTFS ProPlus64 which is
industry’s first FAT64 file system shatters FAT32’s
limitation of 4 Gigabytes file size. Using ERTFS
ProPlus 64 the developer can develop multi-gigabyte
long files yet maintaining complete FAT32
compatibility.
EBS’s FAT64 technology overcomes several of
traditional FAT32' limitations, provide high
performance and deterministic file operations for
files of virtually unlimited size. FAT64 file
system technology
is useful in the development of consumer devices
like set tops, DVRs, digital video cameras or
scientific devices that must store or retrieve large
data sets. |
