- FO 10:23 PM Feature #85: 720p support/1080i support
- Got this merged down to svn and also v1 and v3 building.
Was hanging on purely internal i2c. Changed master and slave (+glue) to use in/wen instead of inout and working better. Slightly corrupt output on v1. I think this might be due ...

- I have the crtc/scaler settings now in the flash chip (except scaler filter).
Upside: doesn't waste space in firmware
Downside: people will need to flash with usb blaster, rpd method will brick the video.

- Oh and the clkgen chip can drive the video too, for those who want to try custom modes. I've not tried it yet since its statically set up at 30MHz iirc, but should give it a spin.
- FO 09:25 PM Feature #85: 720p support/1080i support
- I have all these modes working properly from the firmware.
NTSC:480i/480p/720p/1080i
PAL:576i/576p/720p/1080i
All in 4:3
480p/576p and 720p all skip a pixel, so 4x gr.0 or gr.8 isn't great.
480i and 1080i do not! Yes, 480i is bett... - FO 10:01 AM Feature #85: 720p support/1080i support
- The dev of another hdmi library posted it on hacker news. Worth a look.

- FO 10:38 AM Feature #85: 720p support/1080i support
- It seems pretty clear that on the 2nd board can use the reconfigurable clock to provide 27MHz and 74.25MHz hdmi clocks, by reconfiguring it. These can drive clk6p into the 3rd pll, which does x5 for the tmds clk (/2).
For the others..... - FO 10:30 AM Feature #85: 720p support/1080i support
- Clock switching is proving fun, due to a bunch of constraints!
1st board: 50MHz on H16 (CLK11p) - which is connected to FPLL X0_Y38,X54_Y38, but not the other two
2nd board: : 50MHz on H16 (CLK11p) - which is connected to FPLL X0_Y3...

- FO 10:13 PM Feature #85: 720p support/1080i support
- Cleaned up the i2c wiring to be more generic. crtc wiring working too. Can switch from 720p50 and 1080i50 in firmware now (manual code, not menu yet...). Just wired up polyphasic too, except filter params which are currently hardcoded la...
