Have you been able to locate at least one panel > datasheet that documents this requirement ? I think I remember seeing some panel or encoder asking for different edges. But it's rather vague memory =). Interestingly, the default behavior of OMAP DSS is to have data and sync at different edges. I don't know what was the rationale for that design. Another, slightly related, interesting thing is that only from OMAP4 forward we have had the possibility to have hsync and vsync happen at the same time. Earlier hsync came first, followed by vsync. This old behavior caused problems at least on one encoder I worked on. Tomi
