That's what i.MX6sx and i.MX7 do. I thought about that, but on the Nano, the video_pll is several layers up. video_pll -> video_pll_bypass -> disp_pixel -> disp_pixel_clk Do I just set that flag for each of these? adam > > Sascha > > -- > Pengutronix e.K. | | > Steuerwalder Str. 21 | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | > 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | > Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 |
