Any suggestions on how (or if) the usb-blaster avalon jtag master could be used to transfer a block of memory that sits on the avalon bus? I'm trying to debug a video buffer, and it would be super useful if I could pull the raw binary data directly from memory, repeatedly, and as fast as the blaster protocol allows.

Just use the JTAG-to-Avalon-MM bridge and connect it as another master to the memory.

Cheers,
