Well, actually I'm looking for DaVinci product that supports Linux, with LCD-controller and minimum 2 layers of displaying.And amongst them I'll look for those which can decode MPEG2/4/H.264.

I am aware that dm36x/355/644x/646x support Linux. I am aware of dm36x supporting LCD, we added linux driver support for the same. I believe when you say 2 layers, it means video and bitmap layers. All the above platforms support both the layers. Regarding other features you need to see webpages relating to corresponding platforms.

2 layers = video + bitmap, that's right

Thanx a lot, Nagabhushana, you brought the confidence of no omissions. Sometimes the answer is not obvious when you choose amongst all families due to the enormous amount of information.

p.s. Also maybe we can add 37x family to such list.
