Re: [Nouveau] [PATCH v7 22/23] drm/vc4: vec: Add support for more analog TV standards

2022-11-10 Thread Lukas Satin
That's great, I will test it on Ubuntu + Nouveau x86_64 and Batocera-Linux.

I'm not interested in Raspberry Pi. I see you have some commit in
RaspberryPi/Linux. Will this go to some Nouveau driver, so I can test it on
x86_64 machine? I have some basic experience compiling Linux kernel (nvidia
driver) from 10 years ago.

Scaling is not the way to go because I do this to not use scaling. I could
use 640x480 and scale 320x240 to that mode, right? That is what old
retrogaming laptop LCD screens do (you can even enable this in their BIOS).

More appropriate is to preserve pixel ratio and have some border. So you
mostly select the closest resolution and live with small border on the
edge. Then you can crop it on analog TV using real world dials :-)

I joined Nouveau developer list here. I don't know why we have like 40
email recipients here and now we discuss Raspberry. Anyway, I would like to
see this in Nouveau, so I could test it on several Geforce devices with TV
out and Windows Media Center devices such as Acer iDEA 510. Such devices
have SCART and component out, they did cost quite a lot and nowadays you
can get them for 30-50 EUR. It is cheaper that Raspberry with all the
additional cables and have better video output quality (RGB is better than
CVBS).

There was NVTV utility that can do this in Linux, but that works only for
Geforce 3 and older. That would make sense if you get Intel Core Quad
motherboard with AGP slot (yes they do exist).

So I'm collecting various retrogaming hardware, have 8 computers on single
KVM and CRT, several big box games and 20 computers total. Two Sony PVM's,
one JVC, several CRT's and Samsung QLED with HDR as well. I prefer CRT :-)

So can we have this NVTV functionality or this above Rasp commit in
Nouveau, so I can test it with Nvidia GPU even it takes me whole weekend to
mess around?

When it works, I would like to present it to regular retrogaming community
and give you a proper credit, of course.

Thank you,
Lukas

Re: [Nouveau] [PATCH v7 06/23] drm/modes: Add a function to generate analog display modes

2022-11-09 Thread Lukas Satin
Hi, your statement:

"However, analog display usually have fairly loose timings requirements,
the only discrete parameters being the total number of lines and pixel
clock frequency."

Please do not make it as a rule. You said yourself: "usually". Arcade CRT
have more loose timings, but professional broadcast TV's such as Sony PVM,
Sony BVM, JVC. These cost tens of thousand dollars back in the day. Now
they are affordable for gamers. I just solved issue in Retroarch, CRT
Switchres library here: https://github.com/antonioginer/switchres/issues/96

This model is quite common among retrogamers and on Reddit.

Some developers do not test it properly.

This model requires exact number of lines.

For Switchres we came up with these ranges:

crt_range0 15625-15750, 49.50-65.00, 2.000, 4.700, 8.000,
0.064, 0.192, 1.024, 1, 1, 192, 288, 0, 0
crt_range1 15625.00-15625.00, 50.00-50.00, 1.500, 4.700,
5.800, 0.064, 0.160, 1.056, 1, 1, 0, 0, 448, 576
crt_range2 15734.26-15734.26, 59.94-59.94, 1.500, 4.700,
4.700, 0.191, 0.191, 0.953, 1, 1, 0, 0, 448, 480

crt_range0 is default, more loose definition for MAME emulators. crt_range1
is PAL and crt_range2 is NTSC.

Yes, this model does support both NTSC and PAL.

Does your driver or library support that?

For example old driver in Windows 7 with NVIDIA 2007 driver on Geforce 7600
can support both NTSC and PAL and these are being switched automatically by
the resolution you choose. So in desktop properties, you change to 640x480
and it will switch TV chipset to NTSC 480i. Then you change to 720x576 and
it will switch TV chipset to PAL 576i.

It would be preferred if advanced users could set up these numbers from a
commandline during a runtime, so it would depend on the app being used.

Re: [Nouveau] [PATCH v7 22/23] drm/vc4: vec: Add support for more analog TV standards

2022-11-09 Thread Lukas Satin
They are important for retrogaming and connecting TV out to CRT TV or using
emulator.

I have PS1 that is using PAL-60 for example.

Can you add 240p and 288p non-interlaced modes for NTSC and PAL, please?

Re: [Nouveau] [PATCH v7 00/23] drm: Analog TV Improvements

2022-11-09 Thread Lukas Satin
One can switch from NTSC to PAL now using (on vc4)

modetest -M vc4  -s 53:720x480i -w 53:'TV mode':1 # NTSC
modetest -M vc4  -s 53:720x576i -w 53:'TV mode':4 # PAL


NTSC should be 640x480i, not 720. It will probably work on most TV's, but
NTSC by the spec is 640x480i.
