Hans,
I've found that I do indeed need to look at the 'hsper' that the TDA
provides above along with the vper/hper as there are several timings
that match a given vper/hper. However I haven't figured out how to
make sense of the hsper value that is returned.
Here are some example timings and the vper/hper/hsper returned from the TDA:
V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_1280X960P60 449981/448/55
V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_1280X1024P60 449833/420/27
V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_1280X768P60 450021/568/11
V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_1360X768P60 449867/564/34
Do you know what the hsper could be here? It doesn't appear to match
v4l2_bt_timings hsync ((27MHz/bt->pixelclock)*bt->hsync).
Thanks,
Tim
