Is the video input device (video decoder/camera) encoding the data in BT656
format?  If so, it could be using 'embedded sync' codes (SAV/EAV) - separate
HSYNC/VSYNC aren't required in this case.  See SPRUE38A (VPFE) section 2.2
for more info (specifically, look at page 20).

If you want to use separate HSYNC/VSYNC signals, take a look at the "Generic
YUV" mode of the VPFE (section 2.3.1/page 22).  It looks like it would be
the same as BT656 in all other respects - but relies on external clocking.
