VLPB , where is it?

I am interested in integrating a DSP image processing solution to create some proof of concept examples on this board.

I want to capture frames (720p)  -> hand them off to the DSP for a simple frame average -> output to HDMI . Thats all I wish to do, and this seems to be a straightforward use of this board, but I can't seem to find an example that does this, at least not in terms that I understand. 
I was originally working with V4L2 but I can't find any information on how to combine the program saLoopBack wth some kind of DSP program.

I have decided that perhaps I should use the OMX environemnt since it seem to be the default So far all I have found was using the VLPB example C6xtest. But this doesn't seem to do anything constructive.

I have got as far as running the example C6xtest as shown http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OMX_EZSDK_Examples#C6xtest even though the notes say to use firmware_load when it should be firmware_loader.

So I executed  the program and it did something, great. I thought I could gain some major information on how it woks  but I am assuming that this component can be modified  as an example, but I don't have any idea where the source for dm816x_c6xdsp.xem3 is?

  1. Is there source in the EZSDK set for VLPB , r dm816x_c6xdsp.xem3 ? (ti-ezsdk_dm816x-evm_5_04_00_11)
  2. Can I compile it with the EZSDK tools ?
  3. Am I looking at this wrong ?
  4. Does someone know what would the proper example pieces I would need to capture frames , pass them to the DSP (with a DSP program I can actually modify and compile) and display the result?
