[Theora-dev] 16 bits, cast on idct function

[Felipe Portavales Goldstein]

Yes, It runs very well, with a very good latency.

But I synthesized for Stratix FPGA, and it consumes about 20% of the
slices, this is because the distributed RAM.
Im using (on this first version) a RAM like an array, acessing all
time , without worry.
But, It inferrs flipflops for each memory position, and big muxes to control it.

So, to solve this problem, I will use a syncronous memory model, That
will inferr Block RAMS (FPGA specialized blocks). This is like small
SDRAMs on th FPGA chip.

I think that using it , the area can drop down to 3% to 5% of the
Stratix FPGA slices.
