The TI Aureus chips that have been decoding DD+, TrueHD, and DTS-HD Master Audio since last year weren't designed for those formats? I hadn't heard that before. Didn't seem to stop them from making it work, which gives TI an advantage in having first-hand experience that would certainly seem likely to be useful in developing their next chip...
