I have a number of boards with OMAP 3530/3730 that use the TVP5150AM1 video decoder. On most of these boards, I can capture reasonable quality video. However, I have some (more than a few which is reason for concern) where the video is either really bad or even the ISP doesn't seem to recognize the BT656 data stream. On the ones that have "bad" video, the data is all blown out and barely recognizable. All the boards are running the same kernel (3.0+ with the YUV patches that Lennart and others proposed late last year). I've verified that the component registers (ISPCCDC and TVP5150) match. I can't see what could be the cause of such radically variable behaviour.
Sorry, attribution should be to Laurent Pinchart :-)
The one thing I've found is on the boards that don't work at all, the CCDC_SYN_MODE[FLDSTAT] bit is not toggling, which in turn causes no data to be pushed through the V4L2 pipeline. Any ideas what can cause this? More importantly, what I can try to fix it? The really scary thing is that all the boards in my lab work great, but in the factory (some 6000 miles away), more than not don't work :-( Would it be possible to configure the CCDC to capture the raw BT656 data? These boards are very small and it's impossible to get onto the video data lines going into the processor (they are all hidden within the circuit board). Any help/ideas gladly accepted.
