Article on differences with this new chip by dune-hd.com

Both 3.0 version products feature Sigma Designs 864x chip, more than twice more powerful than the previous 8634 chip model: 667 Mhz against 300 MHz. It grants even faster GUI than before, allows much more fluent support of any "heavy" applications including BD-J (Java), Flash Lite 3, Web browsers, etc.

1 GB/s Ethernet now is included by default. Both in 100Mb/s and 1GB/s modes the network speed is now enough for watching any even most heavy contents (like highest bitrate Blu-ray ISO), and of course it's much better now for copying large quantities of data via players (to/from internal or connected data storages).

Here is a list of the major differences of our 3.0 models from the already announced competitive solutions on 8642/3 chip (most of the differences are valid also to any other competitive solutions based on other chips):

1. 864x chip
Our Prime 3.0 solution is based on Sigma Designs 8642 chip, not on the 8643 one. We'd like to remind that every odd version of Sigma chips is a functionally reduced variant of the chip with the _previous_ even number (i.e. 8643-8642. 8635-8634, ...). Odd versions inc. 8643 and 8635 are never meant for playing any copyright-protected materials (like Blu-ray and DVD) and are mostly meant for cheap IPTV/VoD set-top-boxes. For example, Macrovision support is enabled in 8642 chips and disabled in 8643 ones. So only Dune players on 8642 chip have no limitations with output of protected video through analog video interfaces. Also 8643-based players can not be legally sold in any AV-stores as Blu-ray players (for example, with some preinstalled Blu-ray drive), for Dune BD players there is no such limitation and you'll be able to find them not only in Internet.
