EVMDM6446 and dvsdk_1_30_00_40

[Phil Quiney]

Hi,
 
The problem is the buffer sizes - you are setting the mode to NTSC but are using PAL size buffers.
 
If you change the sizes to 720x480 in the bootargs it should work.
 
With the older kernel this did not cause a problem, however with the 'unified' kernel it matters. At least that is what we have found ;-)

Hello Everybody,

I am following the sprue66d.pdf for using the DVEVM with DVSDK_1_30_00_40

 But it fails saying 
*******************************************************************************
Encodedecode demo started.
Encodedecode Error: Failed FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO on /dev/fb/3 (Invalid argument)
Encodedecode Error: Failed ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO on /dev/fb/0

Total I-frames: 0, P-frames: 0, B-frames: 0, IDR-frames: 0 rejected: 0
*******************************************************************************
on further investigation we found that kernel itself was having some issues opening the video port.

following is the part of dmesg; 
*******************************************************************************

following is my bootarg

Has anybody else observed the same issue? Any idea how to resolve that?

regards,
