I had this when moving from DM355 EVM to our custom board. I don't know
if it would be the same kind of issue on DM6446..

On ours, the problem was that the VPFE driver has support for the
TVP5146 deoder written into it, it failed to communicate with that chip
over I2C and failed to finish loading.
I went in with a machette and cut all the TVP5146 stuff out and it works
now.

Subject: Problem with opening /dev/video0 device

Hi all,

We have installed new tool chain dvsdk 1.30.00. We have our custom board
developed on DM6446(Davinci) processor.

When we are running "./encodedecode" demo (TI sample demo) on our board
with new version, if is displaying message

        can't open /dev/video0 : No such file or directory

but with old version (dvsdk 1.0), it is working properly. (/dev/video0
is used for caturing data from CCD-interface).

Atfer board is boot up with new version , we checked the "/dev" folder.
"video0" device is not present, but when we boot with old version, it is
present in /dev and it works properly.

If anyone has faced the similar problem, please let us know.

Following are the kernel-settings we have enabled for V4L2 capture as
built-in before creating uImage:
Device Drivers--> Multimedia devices--> <*> video for linux
                                         -->video for linus -->
<*>Davinci Video Capture
 
---TVP5146 video decoder
 
---MT9T001 sensor


Following are the environment variables ("bootargs") setting:

For old version dvsdk 1.00.00, the settings are:
1. setenv bootargs 'console=ttyS0,115200n8 noinitrd rw root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=10.50.40.216:/root/workdir/filesys,nolock
ip=10.50.40.236:10.50.40.216:10.50.40.1:255.255.248.0:Elix1000::off
mem=120M'

2. setenv run 'setboot;tftpboot 0x86000000 uImage_DVBS;bootm 0x86000000'
setenv bootcmd 'run setboot;tftpboot 0x86000000 uImage_10;bootm
0x86000000'

For new version dvsdk 1.30.00, the settings are:
1.setenv bootargs
video=davincifb:vid0=720*576*16,2500K:vid1=720*576*16,2500K:osd0=720*576
*16,
2025K davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_output=COMPOSITE
davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_mode=pal
console=ttyS0,115200n8 noinitrd rw ip=10.50.40.123 root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=10.50.40.212:/home/workdir/filesys,nolock mem=120M

2.setenv bootcmd 'setenv setboot setenv bootargs \$(bootargs)
davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_mode=\$(videostd); run setboot;tftpboot 0x86000000

Thanks,
dilip.
