Dm8148 scale up/down captured video



Hello TI' teams.

I need to scale up or scale down captured by VIP video.

I'm understood correctly, that scaling performed by ScalarLink only, and scaling is hardware accelerated?

Please let me know what is minimal and maximal scale up and scale down factors for video? And minimal step?  Let me know, please is possible to perform scale up or scale down by rational number, for example, perform scale down by factor 1.4, or scale up by factor 2.15?

I works with dvr-rdk 3.5 from ud-works

ThanX alot

  • All of the following links can be used for scaling in DVRRDK:

    1. SclrLink

    2. DeiLink

    3. SwMsLink

    4. CaptureLink (VIP inline scaling)

    5. DisplayLink (only on HDMI , display inline scaler)

    6.MpSclr Link

    All links use one of 5 HDVPSS HW scaler modules.

    The limitations with hw scaler are:

    1. Width should be multiple of 16

    2. Height should be even number

    3. Max input/output resolution -> 1920x1080

    4. Max downscale factor is 1/16

    5.Min scaler resolution is 48x8

    Only MpSclrLink supports greater than1920x1080 input and output is fixed to 1920x1080

     

     

  • Thanks alot for reply.

    Video scaling in all enlisted above links is hardware accelerated?

    Up-scaling supported too? For example: up-scale from 640x480 to 1280x960, or up-scale to rational factor 1.4:

    from 640x480 to 896x672? 

    Are vertical and horizontal scale factors may be not equal?

    - Yes. Need not be equal

  • Hi Badri,

    thanX alot for your answers. Is scale factor of each enlisted above links can be dynamically changed in run-time?

    and dynamically changed per specified video channel?

  • Yes scale factor can be changed dynamically on a per channel basis
