NEEK Dev Board - Picture Viewer Project Compilation

Hello, 

 

I'm a student from France and for my school project, I wish to 

use the picture viewer design. 

 

In the read me file given with the project it says to compile with SOPC Builder 

because the original project uses absolute paths and they are different on my computer. 

 

The problem is during the SOPC generating it says several times: 

 

:mad: The project or revision name contains one or more of the following illegal characters and cannot be opened: ^&?*|;':mad:  

 

I don't understand the path of the project is: 

C:\Altera\72\kits\cycloneIII_3c25_niosII_eval\examples\picture_viewer 

 

I've checked all the directories of the project they're isn't any illegal character. 

 

I used to have that message sometimes in Quartus but there was illegal characters in the project path. 

 

For the moment I've only added the levaluation license for the SD MMC IP from elcamino 

 

Does someone have a clue on where I could look for a solution? 

 

 

My goal is to use the picture viewer design to display pictures and modify it with the following : 

-Display on a VGA Screen 

-Display on a bigger LCD screen (I found a tutorial from Altera to write a new LCD controller) 

-Since I don't use a touchscreen use switches for options 

-Add a video IP (if I can :D ) 

 

 

Thanks

THe path in your message has a space in it: "\exam ples\" which will cause Quartus to error. Make sure the path has no spaces.
