The adv7604 is working pretty well for HDMI and analog RGB sources and we managed to setup the auto graphics mode for non-supported video formats.
However, it sometimes happens that after setting up the auto graphics mode the receiving video signal is horizontal misaligned. In other words, the AV-Codes “SAV” and “EAV” are positioned in the active video. We load the configuration data for the auto graphics mode from a database depending on the measurements of the sync detection block. The same configurations sometimes work fine and sometimes results in a horizontal misaligned video.
We noticed that writing the ADC sample phase register (DLL_PHASE[4:0], AFE Map, Address 0xC8, [4:0]) fixes the problem. The first write to this register changes the position of the AV-codes in the output stream and corrects the misaligned video.
We didn’t expect this and we have no explanation for this behavior. I guess we are missing something in the setup for the auto graphics mode or have chosen a wrong order for the register setup.
Any help would be great!
Thanks
