Stefan,

If the sync is present: most MPEG encoders badly handle "dark" images -
the AGC in the sensor turns up the gain, the resulting noise is hard to
encode, and the DSP runs out of bandwidth.

Try measuring encode plus decode time (more than one frame time?).
Try separate encode, store to disk, then decode.

Regards,
Arie de Muijnck

Subject: VIDDEC_EOK-error

after connecting a CMOS camera to davinci, I get an error if I close the
camera lens. 
if the lens is not closed, i can encode and decode and display without
problems. 

The dsp engine stops to give back an VIDDEC_EOK, what means that the
pictures are dropped.

The strange thing is, that this also happens with the unchanged
demosoftware encodedecode if used in D1(720*480) mode.

why the decode engine has problems when filming darkness?

any idea?

Thanks
Stefan
