Recompiling the VS2 demo for DM816

I am trying to recompile the VS2 demo in EZSDK 5.0.0.9, and have managed some partial success. While I can re-generate the two out files for the m3video and m3vpss cores, I am unsure where to build the "hdmiInCCS.out" binary. Simply making the vs2 target produces a file named "vs2_a8host_debug.xv5T" which I am able to run from Linux on the DM816 DDR3 EVM, but it produces a large number of errors and causes the two M3 cores to reset. I'm not currently too concerned about starting the test from Linux, but rather I'm interested in using the VS2 demo as a starting point to create a demo of our own run directly from CCS. So my real question is: Where is the source code for the "hdmiInCCS.out" and how should I be compiling it?

    Josh,

    Will it be possible to move to the latest SDK release (5.0.0.11)?

    In 5.0.0.9, by default, interducati demo binaries are created. In 5.0.0.11, binaries required to run the demo from A8 are included and by default these binaries are created when you rebuild. I suspect you are using IPC_MODE=remote and not remoteWithHOST which is required when you want to run the app from A8.

    Release package does not include the source for hdmiInCCS.out. As you are trying rebuilding of the m3 executable and run vs2 demo, you do not need to rebuild hdmiInCCS.out (unless changing some configuration of onchip HDMI). You need to just use this A8-executable to configure the On chip HDMI.

    thanks

    Tarakesh.

    While not critical, one of the changes I would like to make is to use a lower resolution on the output. We currently have only one monitor that can display 1080i, and it would be useful for me if I could work at a resolution compatible with the monitors I already have at my desk. I assume this change would be in hdmiInCCS.out?

    As a follow up, I am now using 5.0.0.11 and running the VS2 demo directly from linux using the vs2_a8host executable, which will allow me to change any of the settings I desire.
