Which FPGA should be used?

That's a bit of an open-ended question... Does cost matter? How about power consumption? Are you looking at buying IP or writing it yourself?

Cost and Power both matters. I want a lowest power and size solution. I want to drive a 2.5" to 3" custom made LCD panel. Not sure about buying an IP. I can write it myself. Is there a tool that can make it easy?

Personally, I'm a big fan of Cyclones as they're cheap and powerful enough for what I do. That said, if you're doing decompression (I'm assuming you're using compressed video) on the fly, you'll definitely need hardware multipliers, so that implies Cyclone II or higher. What kind of external memory are you using and where are you pulling your data in from?

Not sure about external memory yet. I am thinking of using storage device. How do I get in touch with Altera Sales Rep.

Which altera development kit or a daughter card will work best for the application I need.
