Dear TI Community members,
Could you please help me regarding following topic.
We are looking to start an embedded development project which involves capturing HDMI at different resolutions and frame-rates up to 1080i/p at 60fps. Not many processing platforms are able to capture 1080i/p60. So, our choice will most probably fall on either DM8148 or AM3874 video SOC.
Basically, the final device is thought to act like a regular LCD monitor with hdmi input. That's why we must be sure the following resolutions and framerates are supported by DM8148/AM3874 software for the use-case of capture and immediate display on LCD (1280x800):
- 480i @ 59.94/60 fps;
- 480p @ 23/29.97/30/59.94/60 fps;
- 576i @ 50/60 fps;
- 576p @ 25/50 fps;
- 720p @ 30/50/60fps;
- 1080i @ 50/60 fps;
- 1080p @ 24/25/30/60 fps;
- for interlaced capture scaling would not work, as this would be a SOC HW limitation. Is this only true for capture-encode? Is it true for capture-display? Does this mean that I could not successfully display on LCD (1280x800) a captured 1080i60 ?
- Upscaling would not work during capture. Only downscaling would work on the digital video input. Does this mean that I could not go into fullscreen for a captured 480p video stream on a 1280x800 LCD ?
