decode_hd source

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: THS8200

Is there a newer version of decode_hd that compiles cleanly with the current version of the dvsdk?  We are trying to implement the SPRAAN0 paper with our DVEVM and the THS8200 daughter card, but we do not have the dvsdk mentioned in the paper, so we are just trying to use the latest.  We are also using our kernel as well (and the patch included in the zip file).

  • Unfortunately, the App Note was based on an older DVSDK and has not been upgraded to newer DVSDK; mostly because much of the digital video output support can now be found in the newer DVSDK drivers (this was not the case when the App Note was written).  It is much better to have this support buildt into DVSDK than to have to upgrade source code everytime a new DVSDK is released.

    What DVSDK version are you currently using?  and what platform (DM644x, dm355, dm6467...)?

  • We are interested in generating analog RGB using the DaVinci DM6446 and the THS8200 chip.  We are using the 1.30.1.41 dvsdk and we are using the 4.0.1 MontaVista kernel (patch level pro-1898).

  • You should be able to find documents under

    PSP_XX_XX_XX_XXX/docs  (part of DVSDK installation)

    that describe how to enable PRGB digital video output; however, you may need to write your own ths8200 driver or modify the one provided with the app note (or if there is one provided with DVSDK, even better) to enable analog RGB output.  Hopefully this provides you with some general direction off the top of my head; if you need more specific help, let us know and we will dig a little deeper.
