Description

Investigate why... On the v1 core this occurred when running the PLL at very high fVCO. However we already fixed that in v1, so not sure why.

Ijor recommended I try registering the input directly from SDRAM. I've done this and see if it helps.

He is also kindly helping me write some correct timequest rules, really appreciated:)

I've still had bad builds since registering the sdram input directly.

I tried to specify an externally switchable input clock for timequest as a proxy for ntsc/pal clocks. However it doesn't make it past derive_pll_clocks, so I guess I need to define multiple pll outputs. I'm not sure of the impact here in terms of clock grouping definitions etc.

Interesting when I build on AWS I get completely screwed up builds with the registered sdram input. Seemingly every time.

I remember that this was ok in mine board. Are you use the prototype 2 area to get the firmware?

Not seen this for months, think it was an issue around this time that has been fixed. Marking as normal priority for now.
