HDMI Rx

Convert video stream to YCbCr 4:2:2 pixel stream

Since R2019a

Libraries:
SoC Blockset Support Package for Xilinx Devices / Video

Description

The HDMI Rx block converts raw video data to a YCbCr 4:2:2 pixel stream format. It can return data in pixel stream mode for hardware algorithm design or in frame mode for faster simulation. When you include this block in your design, the SoC Builder tool generates all the IP blocks necessary to receive video data from the FMC-HDMI-CAM card attached to your hardware board. None of the block parameters affect hardware behavior. When simulating, specify a video file to stream.

You must have Computer Vision Toolbox™ to use this block.

Ports

Output

hdmiRxData — Single YCbCr 4:2:2 pixel in pixel stream

concatenated YCbCr value

Single YCbCr 4:2:2 pixel in pixel stream, specified as a scalar in concatenated YCbCr 4:2:2 format, where

• bits [1:8] represent Y.

• bits [9:16] represent Cb or Cr, interleaved in time.

Data Types: uint16

ctrl — Control signals accompanying output pixel stream

pixelcontrol bus

Control signals accompanying output pixel stream, returned as a pixelcontrol (Vision HDL Toolbox) bus. The bus contains five Boolean signals indicating the validity of a pixel and its location within a frame.

When the Output mode parameter is Frame, the block sets all five signals in the pixelcontrol bus to true to indicate when the output data is valid.

Data Types: bus

Parameters

Main

Frame size — Video frame size

160x120p (default) | Pixel | ...

Select the video frame size as one of these values:

• 480p SDTV (720x480p)

• 576p SDTV (720x576p)

• 720p HDTV (1280x720p)

• 1080p HDTV (1920x1080p)

• 160x120p

• 320x240p

• 640x480p

• 800x600p

• 1024x768p

• 1280x768p

• 1280x1024p

• 1360x768p

• 1366x768p

• 1400x1050p

• 1600x1200p

• 1680x1050p

• 1920x1200p

Output mode — Output mode of the block

Frame (default) | Pixel

Specify whether the output is streamed one pixel per clock cycle or one frame per clock. Pixel mode better represents the hardware algorithm and is recommended for FPGA deployment. Frame mode enables faster simulation.

Simulation

Input file name — Input video file

character vector

Specify the full path to an input video file. For information on the supported file types, see From Multimedia File (Computer Vision Toolbox).

Example: 'handshake_left.avi'

Frame sample time — Block sample time

1/60 (default) | positive scalar

Block sample time, in seconds, specified as a positive scalar. The default value corresponds to a frame rate of 60 fps.

Visualize input frame — Display input video

on (default) | off

Selecting this option enables a To Video Display (Computer Vision Toolbox) block to display the input frame during simulation.

Extended Capabilities

HDL Code Generation

Generate Verilog and VHDL code for FPGA and ASIC designs using HDL Coder™.

To automatically generate HDL code for your design, and execute on an SoC device, use the SoC Builder tool.
