Hi all, I'm new here, and need help.
I'm looking for FPGA board for high definition (up to 1920x1020@60) video and audio processing. Can anybody suggest me development or starter kit for me. Also I want to do some measurements for example measure amplitude of video and audio signal, noise and such simple measurements. Thanks.Link Copied

I would suggest Stratix IV Video devkit.

Thanks a lot, but for me this devkit is too expansive :)

Then check out Cyclone III Video devkit. I have this one, but Altera made a huge mistake in such devboard by adding a level converter on HSMC connectors for clock wire, which is only capable of 100MHz max. Now I can't connect any of mine HSMC boards: either with 1gbit ethernet (clk=125MHz) or DVB-ASI board (clk=135MHz)... Huge FPGA with no possibilities to add any fast boards.

Yes with great pleasure:)
Now I have one non-commercial project, just help my friend and learn at the same time. I need to do some measurement of video signals (composite, component, S-video, also HDMI up to 1920x1080@60 resolution). The measurements are amplitude, frequency response, linearity, noise, delay between components signals, resolutions, frame rate and everything connected with video signals. I then send the results of measurements to PC or Laptop by USB or by RS232.- Mark as New

Basically Your requirements has nothing to do with video development itself. You need a development kit with fast ADC then and USB interface. USB is easy to do if You use FT2232 or any other FTDI chip. With FT2232 You can get 40mbps afaik.

I also thought about it. For PAL/NTSC video signal can be, because the sampling frequency 13MHz, but what about high-definition components video. They require very high sampling frequency ~75 MHz. What do you think, USB-port has enough speed to transfer A/D data directly to PC for future processing?

It depends on the USB chip. 75MHz sampling freq for ADC is not a problem. You can use several ADCs and phase shifted clock for the best accuracy. Maybe You can use ethernet? It is possible to get up to 900mbps afaik using gbit link.

recently I have found this eval board
http://www.geosemi.com/niobe_brief_rev_1.0.pdf What do you think Socrates is it good? this board have all video inputs and 3 decoding ways inside.- Mark as New

Is it FPGA based? I don't know any such image processors as used there, so can't tell You if it's good or bad.

Can you suggest me one PAL/NTSC and one HDMI receiver daughter card with HSMC connector. I think better to purchase FPGA kit with 2 HSMC connector and daughter card, it will be much more flexible for me.
And thank you for your help.- Mark as New
