I missed one information. Did you set the bootargs correctly ? The
jumper setting is read by the bootloader and is updated in the videostd
environment variable. Now for the driver to use this variable, bootargs
need to have the following settings.

 

video=dm355fb:output=\$(videostd)

 

Now based on Jumper settings, following will be passed to kernel (and to
driver)

 

video=dm355fb:output=pal or video=dm355fb:output=ntsc depending on the
jumper settings

It means, the linux driver is detecting it as PAL, but application is
trying to select a NTSC camera. Check the demo code to see why it is
selecting a NTSC camera and fix it.

Hi,

 

what problem i mentioned is that when i connect the pal camera to the
evm and run the encode or encodedecode demo supplied by the DVSDK, it
said:

 

PAL camera connect but NTSC camera selected.

 

it did not work though i have set the J1 to select the pal camera.

 

what 's wrong with it ?

 

can you say more?

 

Regards

 

Jammy

        Hi,

        TVP5146 has autodetect feature. To turn it on, you need to
invoke a S_STD ioctl to the V4L2 capture driver (choose TVP5146 as the
capture driver in bootargs) which will detect PAL standard if you feed a
PAL source output to the composite/S-video input of the tvp. Hope this
helps.

        Hi,

         

        The framebuffer driver should support PAL output (but I don't
have hardware to verify it). Could you elaborate on the problem you
have?

         

        Do you mean programming the video capture driver to capture on
PAL? The video capture driver works over raw YUV data received on
digital format from the video codec used on the DM355 EVM (TVP5146), so
its the TVP how is responsible to encode from PAL signal, so is probably
a matter of performing an ioctl over the video driver to ask the driver
to signal the CODEC the PAL format over the i2c.

         

        Let me know if this is what you are looking for, I'm not at my
desktop right now so I can't grep on the files.

        Hi,all

         

        I am developing the dm355 evm, and as u knows, the dm355 evm
does not support pal camera, how should we do for supporting the pal
standard.

         

        can u give me some advice?

         

        thanks
