Vim,

Looks like the "video" settings in the bootargs are incorrect to work
with the DVSDK 1.30 Production Release. (I am assuming you are using the
DVSDK production release 1.30.00.40).

There is a change in the video display architecture to make V4L2 display
driver and frame buffer display driver to coexist, so that the
application can use frame buffer driver for managing the OSD planes and
V4L2 display driver to manage the Video planes.

For the DVSDK 1.30 demos to work on DM6446 and DM355, you need to set
the video in the bootargs to the following -

video=davincifb:vid0=720x576x16,2500K:vid1=720x576x16,2500K:osd0=720x576
x16,2025K davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_output=COMPOSITE
davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_mode=ntsc

The resolution defined here is used by the frame buffer driver to
allocate buffers. The demo applications will then set the required
resolution based on the mode set (ntsc or pal).

Let me know, how it goes.

Thanks
Sneha

Yes. At least it is broken with old demos from all the vendors,
including TI itself. Fixing those may not be hard at all though.
