Gregory's Server@swick We can capture all the raw metadata too, it's an FPGA. I'm actually thinking of just having it dump the entire frame bitstream and doing all the decoding in software, so we can have really fancy diagnostics for CI.

 @swick Not on NeTV2, it goes straight into the FPGA and we can get the entire bitstream. @marcan @swick Lol, been chatting about that at XDC with Leo from AMD. We agreed that any open Chamelium would need to act more like an oscilloscope and less like a normal receiver. Specify your trigger, wait for the symbols to come. Decode that using your CPU. This way, everything new feature can be tested without having to hack the gateware, including USB, Audio, .... Also means that testing anything related to DP-MST would be much easier than with real hardware. We both have an NeTV2 now :D |
@marcan I thought, at least on chamelium, that there is a display controller chip in front of the FPGA? TBH, I didn't look that closely into it yet. If we can get the entire bistream in software that would be amazing and indeed everything required for testing HDR as well.
