This application note describes four methods of playing a video file using a PIC microcontroller (MCU) and hardware solutions available from Microchip. Methods discussed include video playback on PIC32 using upscaling by interpolation, streaming raw video from a micro-SD card using the SSD1926 LCD graphics controller on the Multimedia Expansion Board (MEB), streaming uncompressed AVI video over ethernet on the MEB using PIC32 and streaming uncompressed AVI video over ethernet on WVGA using PIC32sd.
