Avalon ST processing

Hi,

I'd like to know if the following design can be done (workable) or not:

In SOPC builder, I have :

Clocked video input > My component > Frame buffer > Clocked video ouput

In CVI, there is a 1366x768 video.

Frame buffer and CVO are configured for a 800x600 video.

In my component, I want to remove some pixels, that's why I have a process which copy incoming data from Avalon ST sink to Avalon ST source, and I use the Valid signal to discard some pixels (I put Valid Source low instead of high).

Like that I discard some pixels, to have only 800 x 600 valid pixels.

But there is no activity at the output of the Frame Buffer...

Do you think such process can be done? (or do I have to store video in DDR and read back some part of data?)

Thanks for your help,

Francois

    will the VIP clipper block meet your needs for discarding some pixels?

    No the clipper is not useful for me, I need to discard some lines of the video, in fact it's a kind of interlacer core that I want to create
