are the hdmi inputs 0 and 1, or 1 and 2?

0 and 1

J1 near UART is hdmi_in 0

J3 near ethernet is hdmi_in 1

rohitksingh: we should make aliases in the firmware

for the HDMI ports?

rohitksingh: yeah - IE "encoder 85 J1" or something

rohitksingh: but the names are board specific, so I don't know the best way

how do I get output on the lcd?

mithro: are opsis's and atlys's hdmi ports pin compatible?

CarlFK: if your hdmi out is on hdmi0 then "framebuffer0 1" else "framebuffer1 1"

output is the one next to the poswer

then is hdmi_out0..use this "framebuffer0 1"

Enabling framebuffer0 from video source 1

but nothing on the lcd

mithro: if opsis and atlys get a proper case, then alias would more useful! r

whats your status?

CarlFK: if your status is showing video source on 1 then "framebuffer0 1" should work...

CarlFK: and ohh...you also have to change the video_mode

CarlFK: use "video_mode list" to list all supported modes

and then change it to the one corresponding yo 800x600

CarlFK: then finally again type "framebuffer0 1"

CarlFK / rohitksingh: make sure you display is set to DVI and not HDMI

CarlFK , mithro: Its 6AM here and sunrise...time for sleep! bye!!

mithro: this lcd only has a dvi connector - is that mean it is set to dvi?

CarlFK: should be

Is the monitor detecting a signal?

mithro: nope

CarlFK: framebuffer == enable output

mithro: HDMI2USB>framebuffer == enable output

didn't ... umm.. reply? normally I get some sort of ack

CarlFK: no I mean the words

as in when you do a "framebuffer0 1" you are saying "set output0 to source1"

mithro: any suggestions on how to get out put ?

CarlFK: what is status showing?

mithro: video source 0: 0x0

video source 1: 0x0

framebuffer0: 800x600 from video source 1

framebuffer1: off

encoder: 800x600 @ 30fps (3Mbps) from video source 1 (q: 85)

ddr: read: 663Mbps write: 0Mbps all: 663Mbps

CarlFK: turn on framebuffer1

mithro: this? framebuffer1 1

CarlFK: think so...

Enabling framebuffer1 from video source 1

but still no lcd

what does status show now?

video source 0: 0x0

video source 1: 0x0

framebuffer0: 800x600 from video source 1

framebuffer1: 800x600 from video source 1

encoder: 800x600 @ 30fps (11Mbps) from video source 1 (q: 85)

ddr: read: 1081Mbps write: 0Mbps all: 1081Mbps

CarlFK: and nothing on the LCD screen at all?

mithro: nope. it is still in power save mode

CarlFK: try forcing it on for a second?

Try changing the inputs on the monitor?

Otherwise, try power cycling the atlys and seeing if the onboard demo video shows up on the screen?

mithro: i plugged it into vga, got output.. pulled the vga out, back to sleep

plugged hdmi into laptop, got display..

power cycling atlys

lcd woke up, displayed color bars

CarlFK: okay

Does the monitor actually support 800x600 resolution?

mithro: http://www.viewsonic.com/us/va2246m-led.html says PC compatibles (VGA up to 1920x1080 non-interlaced)

Title: VA2246m-LED - 22" (21.5" Viewable) Full HD 1080p LED Monitor (at www.viewsonic.com)

CarlFK: you could just try setting a different resolution

mithro: what?

(But as you power cycled the Atlys, you'll have to flash it again)

have you fixed ryan's stuff so I don't have to fill in the missing bits?

oh wait.. I think that was only about loading kernel modules, and the laptop didnt' get power cyclesd

CarlFK: I already submitted a patch which fixed the missing bits in ryan's get-env script

mithro: I am back at HDMI2USB>

Check the help

you can set the resolution there

mithro: Setting video mode to 800x600 @56Hz

CarlFK: that seems a strange video mode to choose....

it was the first 800x600

but everything got reset when I power cycled. should it be outputing anything ?

CarlFK: why are you setting 800x600 at all?

du no.

Setting video mode to 1024x768 @60Hz

is that better?

Use 1024x768 or 720p :)

still nothing

check status

video source 0: 0x0

video source 1: 0x0

framebuffer0: 1024x768 from video source 0

framebuffer1: 1024x768 from video source 0

encoder: off

ddr: read: 1505Mbps write: 0Mbps all: 1505Mbps

Still nothing?

nothing

Can you try sending a video source to the board?

CarlFK: might be worth trying a different monitor too

CarlFK: the fact it works when you power cycle it but not with the firmware is interesting

CarlFK: you said it was a DVI only monitor?

Which probably means it isn't https://github.com/timvideos/HDMI2USB-misoc-fir...

DVI and vga

CarlFK: Can you try sending a video source to the board?

I don't think it will have an effect - but it is worth trying

I need to head home and do some packing soon

mithro:

er

any idea what I did to enable input?

HDMI1 connected 1024x768+1366+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 160mm x 120mm

1024x768 60.0*+ 60.0

i think the display dialog is on the 2nd display, so it must be sending

check status

video source 1: 1024x768

framebuffer0: 1024x768 from video source 0

framebuffer1: 1024x768 from video source 0

encoder: off

ddr: read: 1505Mbps write: 750Mbps all: 2255Mbps

video source 0: 0x0

set the framebuffer to video source 1?

um.. please give me what to cut/paste do I don't guess wrong

I don't know the exact command off the top of my head, I don't have the help in front of me

something like

framebuffer0 1

framebuffer1 1

Enabling framebuffer1 from video source 1

You enable both and still nothing?

just did both, still nothing

video source 0: 0x0

video source 1: 1024x768

framebuffer0: 1024x768 from video source 1

framebuffer1: 1024x768 from video source 1

encoder: off

ddr: read: 1505Mbps write: 750Mbps all: 2255Mbps

Okay

can you dump the information about your monitor into the bug I liked above

sure

CarlFK: specially the EDID information from your monitor captured on the laptop would be useful too

CarlFK: can you try some other monitors now you kind of see how the command line interface works?

mithro: is xrandr enough, or is there an edid dump command

CarlFK: xrandr with --verbose should be fine

mithro: out of time, Sheila wants me to pack up and go home. really need to get the setup better defined so I don't spend so much time getting ready to test

CarlFK: ?

I don't have time tonight to try other monitors

CarlFK: yes - but you could try again another time right?

yep

CarlFK: okay - you should take a look at that C code I linked

CarlFK: you might be able to help fix some of it :)

anyway - heading to my hotel room

see ya

CarlFK: I do notice that your monitor doesn't do 1024x768@60Hz from your edid dump
