16 years agoHey Andreas,
It is as you said, the video clocked output of the VIP suite works just fine. Untill now I was using the material from the Picture viewer as a guide to create my own system. So if I get this right, I can use the SGDMA-scatter module (like used in the picture viewer example) in combination with the video sync generator. But if I want to use the alpha blender, test pattern generator,... (VIP elements) I need to use the video clocked output and perhaps the frame reader instead of the SGDMA-scatterer? In a short way, there are two options a guess: -VIP SOPC elements only combined with VIP elements (in this case I can use the test pattern generator, alpha blender, videoclocked output,... all the VIP blocks). -The video sync generator combined with the SGDMA-scatterer (based on the standard Avalon ST-packaged based interface) system without any further options. This really makes sense when it comes down to the package-transmission you mentioned... You've been a great help! Thanks again, Best Hans
