If you use the VIP, you may need to use the NIOS to programming the various registers within the different modules as well as for running the RTP stack to stream the compressed
video.

How do you check your fifo output? Few things to node:
If you were using signal tap, make sure you have written a constrain for it before you start signal tap the signal.
I see that you were using Dual Clock fifo developed by the university program. You may take a look here https://fliphtml5.com/kwrs/tytq/basic to evaluate this is needed from your side.
Thanks for your reply ,
Before implementing that project I tried it that manually, I mean I manually wrote some data into SDRAM then write it to DC FIFO from sdram and read these data from reading side of the DC FIFO. The writing side was 143 Mhz and the reading side was 108 Mhz, I got clear colors on VGA display. I ensure it like that. I hope that was enough.Today I tried to implement video-in example from (ftp://ftp.intel.com/Pub/fpgaup/pub/Intel_Material/14.0/University_Program_IP_Cores/Audio_Video/Video.pdf) which is pdf that you shared. But I didn't use Nios II softcore processor, am I have to use it ? I am getting white screen nothing else. Can I do it without Nios II ?
Here is my design.
