I want to start with arduino and avr studio + visual micro, because i like the programming language of the arduino IDE. But i don't know, what i need to do, if i want to upgrade to a better chip like the atmega 1284p. Do i have to use a bootloader, if i want to countinue using the arduino programming language? And can i use all my libraries with other chips, if i define te right pins?
lusvd I would choose PIC12 for small projects, 32-bit/ARM AVR for anything serious but not quite requiring ARM9 horse power. Why? Cost/Functionality! PIC12s are cheap with a wide variety of functionality. AVR 32bit/arm for the exact same reason. The PIC tools are less friendly than the AVR tools, but they get the job done.
this analogy is incorrect. let me give you a better one, you might use public transportation and it do the job just fine, it's simple, you don't need to know how to drive, you simply sit and it gets you (almost) where you need to be. if you travel a lot, and move from one side of the town to the other side, you find yourself loosing a lot of time between this transportations. then you're going to NEED a personal vehicle to drive to your destination faster. there you go.. a better analogy to understand why you need to learn basics eventually.
Great videos to reveal the real world of microcontrollers
It is worth noting that digitalWrite is significantly slower than direct port manipulation!
And also the whole library takes up a lot of space. Not really suitable for the ATtiny types.
significantly is an understatement :D

AVR vs PIC, which would you choose and why??

Can i use atmel 8951 microcontroller Led edit software
Are you saying you need to invention a machine to roll the stick with wood to get fire? Or you simply strike a match?

They aren't the same, Arduino does more things like millis increment interrupt.
