Hi!
Lately I've been having different issues while working with video on DM355. I may sound familiar to some of you because of other posts. Righ now I'm having another new problem, so I thought it would be a good idea to open a new post instead of messing the old ones.
I'm trying to output NTSC digital video with DM355 VPBE and then capture it with DM6435 VPFE. It works perfectly with PAL, but now I have to output it in NTSC. In this case I'm seeing two different problems, as seen in the next image (sorry for the quality as it's a photograph):
The snapshot was obtained with CCS video loopback demo after capturing the video with DM6437EVM. On the one hand, I have an issue related to the luminance-crominance synchronization, so that the colours are messed up. On the other hand, the image is cut vertically right in the middle. I don't know how far both problems might be related. If I switch to PAL, colours are OK and I can see the whole image, but when outputting NTSC the colours go wrong and the image becomes half-cut again.
Another clue is that if I check the video being output on the DM355 VPBE analog pins, it's perfect in both cases: PAL and NTSC. I have a connector in my custom board to connect the signal directly to any display device. That's the way I checked this.
I've no idea about what I'm doing wrong. I tried changing the order of the luminance and the chrominance bits, but it had no effect at all. I don't know if the cutting issue is causing desynchronization and, in that case, the colour mess.
Any ideas are welcome. Thanks!
