HDMI input

[costa]

Hello! It would be interesting to have a video input for parallela in order to do real-time video processing. Is it possibile to re-program the Zynq in order to manage it? Or is it possible only through a daughter board?

You can obviously easily attach a USB or Ethernet camera.

If you'd like a more direct / lower latency connection you could attach a camera via the PEC_FPGA expansion connector, which would give you up to 48x single-ended or 24x differential GPIOs with a Z-7020, with interface logic implemented in the FPGA.

Looking at datasheet of TPD12S016PWR (which is in-between Zynx and HDMI connector) it seems to me that it should be possible to create HDMI input. I started looking at it to think whether it will be possible to use HDMI breakout board as alternative to GPIO breakout board, but I still don't have anything to report on that topic

If anybody want to pursue this, there is HDMI implementation within Bunny's NeTV which might be interesting:

if for nothing else, because it has legal implementation of HDCP inside it

(NeTV doesn't decode content received over HDMI, it just init cipher so it can overlay data over existing HDMI stream).
