Difference between Software decoding and hardware decoding for vigica Android TV Box

Software decoding and hardware decoding , our common with the live-on-demand tired APK, when welive or on-demand television movie, press the Menu key, you will see the software decoding and hardware decoding of the points.

1. What is the hardware decoding ?

Hardware solution means: a network video decoder chip set-top box that comes with playing video resources, such as Kudat box is to use GM's eight-core GPU chip, compatibility and decoding results do better, but some manufacturers somewhat less technical strength, compatibility and decoding done on the effect of unpleasantness.


2. What is the software decoding ?

Soft decoding is to use the CPU to decode, need a strong performance and CPU processing power, but the streaming media format compatibility is better, because the library is a software decoding developed by our own, we can control the quality.

Network set-top box hardware decoding is better or software decoding ?

A: In general quality hardware decoding would be better, because there is a dedicated hardware decoding to decode chip high efficiency, in theory than software decoding to good effect, but because the technology is not the same as chip makers could lead to hardware decoding compatibility stream without good software decoding , so there will be some live source hardware decoding can not be played, but the phenomenon of software decoding .

Q:why my Vigica box only with hardware decoding?with out software decoding?

A: Because your box only support hardware decoding , software decoding can not support mode!

Q: why my Vigica box only with software decoding?with out hardware decoding?

A: This is due to the performance of your device CPU decoding caused enough (especially milletbox), Soft Solutions Taijie video instruction is required in order to use neon, CPU application will check whether there are neon equipment directive, if not then this is a soft solution does not show, so we can only see the way the hardware decoding .
