I doubt it is a full digital path for SPDIF, as the chip seems to provide only analog outputs. Unless you are doing something wicked with that built-in XilinX.
The decoder provides digital output as I2S data stream at different rates.
On the hardware side, you could offer something interesting with the 12 GPIO pins the DSP chip has. Maybe an expansion module that could provide a sort of Geekport or a simple series of relais for controlling fun stuff, or even a LCD module that could display some playback parameters.
Well, need to get some pics, but the second revision hardware has digital I/Os and also some mysterious addon module in first prototype revision
It might have to do something with SPDIF output...
Stay tuned. Development is ongoing, but a bit slow due to heavy NMIs from my little daughter
