Hi Kit, there is an easy way out: Use a Philips Video Decoder (SAA7113 or similar), it will generate a locked 27MHz output reference pixel clock from the video stream coming out of the STB. Unfortunately most $49 STB's don't do proper PCR synchronization via PLL, they just do dropped frames, or repeated frames... bye, Said In a message dated 11/23/2009 15:32:47 Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
Attempting to recover any part of a RAW MPEG data stream from a "$49 digital STB" may be doomed to failure. Most STB of this ilk use a single jungle-chip with RF in and various flavours of video out. The data streams you need to access for any clock recovery strategy is unfortunately buried in silicon.... _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
