I'm having difficulty getting the DM8168's OMX to work with a TVP5150 correctly. It displays OK if I tell OMX that the input video is progressive 422, but when I tell it that it's interlaced the deinterlacer seems to have trouble. The TVP5150 is connected to VIP1 port B. I also have a ADV7611 connected to VIP1 operating at 422 16bit and it displays 1080i without any trouble, so I know I'm setting up interlace correctly (at least for 1080i). My OMX connection is VPSSM3.VFCC -> VPSSM3.VFPC.DEIHDUALOUT -> VPSSM3.VFDC. I'm scaling the video to 1080p.
The first image shows what a 480i color bar looks like interlaced (algorithm is not bypassed).
The second image shows what it looks like when I force it to progressive instead of interlaced (algorithm is bypassed). As you can see it looks fine except that half the resolution is lost.
Please help.
