Supporting square pixel mode in DM6446

Hi all,

  I am begginer in video processing using davinci environments, so I apologize if I speak about a nonsense.

  I have inherited a video decoder that reads a mpeg2 transport stream (720x576) and prints it on a screen.

  Now I have to read a H.264 video in square pixel mode (768x576) and print it on a screen.

  At this point, I have been investigating about Davinci Decoders and I have understood that the biggest resolution supported in this processor is 720x576. (http://wiki.davincidsp.com/index.php/DM6446_Codecs)

  am I wrong?

  If there is a possibility of changing this resoultion using SW or if we can process this input video please told me.

  Thanks in advance,

  Best Regards

 

  • unfortunately, the h.264 encoder codec for DM6446 supports up to 720x576 as suggested by the wiki article.

    However, we do have other parts such as DM365 which supports higher h.264 encode resolutions at a lower price.  Have you consider this processor for your needs..?

  • Thanks for your quick answer, Juan.

    At this moment we can not affort changing to other processor. I will try to re-code the video to the maximum size just before sending it to DM6446.

    Thanks again for your help, it is very important to have a very good support team from TI.
