FEC for MST modes is not supported for ICL platform. We could extend this for future platforms  for branch devices that support FEC.

Yes. The requirement though is for compressed streams. I am not sure if we will have to pay any power penalty for SST. Also my understanding is that if a few symbols in a non-compressed stream are in error, then only those symbols will be in error. These errors do not cause other pixels to get corrupted. In compressed streams, if a few symbols are in error, it can cause the entire slice to get corrupted. Will we be getting any much return on non-compressed streams?
