Do you know if this audio format can be decoded by a dedicated chip like the
ones used in the MASPlayer? Obvioulsy I don't mean that I want to know
whether a MASPlayer can play this format becuase I would assume that it
can't, but is there another dedicated chip out there that could be used in
the same way?

I suppose that when the SoundBlaster drivers are finally released by Elbox
for the Mediator things will get a lot better :-)
