| rduplain | got my opsis board! | 01:59 |
|---|---|---|
| rduplain | the getting started page is a bunch of TODOs. completely understandable. | 02:00 |
| rduplain | if there's a walkthrough to get started, please point me to it | 02:00 |
| rduplain | https://raw.githubusercontent.com/timvideos/HDMI2USB-firmware-prebuilt/master/boards/opsis/firmware/stable is "Not Found" | 02:01 |
| mithro | rduplain: what OS are you on? You should be able to just plug it in and start capturing video / controlling it via the serial console | 02:12 |
| CarlFK | im back | 02:13 |
| rduplain | mithro: I just hooked it up and am trying to get an image out of it. I'll report back if I have any issues. Running Ubuntu 14.04. | 02:18 |
| mithro | I'll be around in 30ish minutes | 02:19 |
| CarlFK | rduplain: mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0 | 02:21 |
| CarlFK | you should see color bars test pattern | 02:21 |
| rduplain | I was able to get color bars on first run (I just opened up `cheese`). Now I'm trying vlc and mplayer ... | 02:22 |
| CarlFK | rduplain: next up, connect a serial console | 02:42 |
| rduplain | JUSB1 or 2? | 02:45 |
| CarlFK | on the Opsis, it is the same one | 02:46 |
| rduplain | what are the connection settings? baud etc? sorry, I cannot find a doc | 02:47 |
| CarlFK | flterm --port /dev/ttyACM0 --speed 115200 | 02:49 |
| CarlFK | I use flterm because it somehow works better with the usb chips on the Atlys board that I have been working with | 02:50 |
| CarlFK | and it also works with the Opsis | 02:50 |
| CarlFK | Hmm.. something odd is going on. 2nd time I have seen this today. lsusb shows: Bus 004 Device 020: ID 16c0:06ad Van Ooijen Technische Informatica | 02:53 |
| CarlFK | I think it happens when I start with nothing plugged in, then plug in usb, then plug in power | 02:54 |
| CarlFK | rduplain: when you connect, hit enter. the device should then send back HDMI2USB> | 02:57 |
| *** GChriss has quit IRC | 02:57 | |
| mithro | CarlFK: That is explained on one of the pages I linked too | 02:57 |
| mithro | actually 16c0:06ad is JTAG mode | 02:58 |
| CarlFK | mithro: http://www.meetup.com/NERP-Not-Exclusively-Raspberry-Pi/photos/26818848/447892857/? | 03:01 |
| tpb | Title: Photos - NERP - Not Exclusively Raspberry Pi (Chicago, IL) - Meetup (at www.meetup.com) | 03:01 |
| mithro | CarlFK: but the Opsis will come up in "fail safe mode" while it boots up, then switch to the Video+Serial port mode | 03:02 |
| CarlFK | mithro: it seems to be stuck in this mode. 10 min now. | 03:03 |
| *** GChriss has joined #timvideos | 03:03 | |
| mithro | CarlFK: that is the JTAG mode - not the fail safe mode | 03:03 |
| CarlFK | mithro: I want this to upgrade the firmware, right ? | 03:05 |
| mithro | CarlFK: yes | 03:05 |
| rduplain | CarlFK: thanks, I have a serial console up. what shall I check? | 03:16 |
| CarlFK | rduplain: type: status | 03:16 |
| mithro | rduplain: I would try typing "help" and hitting enter first | 03:16 |
| rduplain | help works | 03:17 |
| rduplain | status looks interesting | 03:17 |
| CarlFK | status on - that will keep displaying it every second until you hit enter to stop it. | 03:18 |
| rduplain | okay, got it to show disconnect and reconnect of input0 | 03:19 |
| rduplain | when I use mplayer, I see all black | 03:19 |
| mithro | rduplain: What does status show at the moment? | 03:20 |
| rduplain | want the full paste? | 03:20 |
| rduplain | (is it small enough to paste in IRC?) | 03:20 |
| mithro | rduplain: pastebin would probably be better | 03:21 |

| tpb | Title: unboxed opsis board, getting black screen in mplayer ยท GitHub (at gist.github.com) | 03:23 |
| mithro | You should be seeing the pattern on your video output - do you have a webcam in your computer that might be on video0 (and thus the HDMI2USB is video1)? | 03:24 |
| rduplain | yes indeed | 03:24 |
| rduplain | Using `mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video1` as suggested here. | 03:25 |
| mithro | rduplain: are you getting the test pattern? | 03:29 |
| rduplain | I must be running into an issue with mplayer, too. | 03:30 |
| rduplain | I can get the test pattern on cheese (a simple program for webcam which ships with Ubuntu). | 03:30 |
| rduplain | I cannot get the video to display in vlc either, using it's capture feature (Ctrl-C). | 03:31 |
| rduplain | s/it's/its/ | 03:31 |
| mithro | Well, lets use cheese for now? | 03:34 |
| rduplain | sure, np. I'm exploring the serial console commands. | 03:35 |
| mithro | rduplain: once you have the test pattern displayed, you should be able to use something like "video_matrix connect input0 encoder" to get the capture input on the USB stream | 03:35 |
| rduplain | I was just playing with that command. Hooray for `help` command~ | 03:37 |
| rduplain | yes! | 03:37 |
| rduplain | that works | 03:37 |
| mithro | rduplain: you can use that command to control the what is displayed on the outputs too | 03:38 |
| mithro | rduplain: We added short cut keys in the latest firmware | 03:38 |
| rduplain | great, I'm happy to get it unboxed! | 03:46 |
| rduplain | thanks for the help | 03:46 |
| mithro | rduplain: no worries | 03:46 |
| mithro | rduplain: I'd recommend hanging around here if you are planning on using it more | 03:46 |
| rduplain | getting late here, so I'll come back to it another day | 03:47 |
| mithro | rduplain: Most of us "idle" here. | 03:47 |
| rduplain | yep, I'll idle, too | 03:47 |
| rduplain | thanks again! excited for the opsis + hdmi2usb. | 03:51 |
| mithro | rduplain: great! Good to hear you managed to get it working | 03:53 |
| CarlFK | mithro: I have the Opsis updated. what is the command to show errors? | 04:39 |
| mithro | debug input0 | 04:39 |
| mithro | I think | 04:39 |
| mithro | or maybe | 04:39 |
| mithro | debug input 0 | 04:39 |
| mithro | it's not in the help | 04:39 |
| CarlFK | HDMI2USB>debug input0 | 04:39 |
| CarlFK | HDMI Input 0 debug on | 04:39 |
| mithro | CarlFK: it'll start spewing stuff when an input is detected | 04:46 |
| CarlFK | mithro: it is. testing the extender now | 04:47 |
| mithro | CarlFK: so, the extender has a little adjustable gain control thingy | 04:48 |
| mithro | CarlFK: Watch the error rate and play with that nob | 04:48 |
| CarlFK | dvisampler0: ph: 6 7 5 // charsync:111 [8 8 8] // WER:35507 42762 30615 // chansync:1 // res:0x0 | 04:48 |
| mithro | WER should be 0 0 0 | 04:49 |
| *** tija has joined #timvideos | 04:51 | |
| mithro | CarlFK: in theory, turning the amplification up should cause the WER to go down | 05:01 |
| *** ssk1328 has joined #timvideos | 05:06 | |
| mithro | Hello ssk1328 | 05:08 |
| mithro | ssk1328: you had questions about the USB3.0 and TOFE the other day right? | 05:09 |
| *** GChriss has quit IRC | 05:09 | |
| *** GChriss has joined #timvideos | 05:11 | |
| CarlFK | mithro: the adjustment seems to be a rotary switch with 8 positions. I've been clicking though each position and watching the report for a few seconds ... | 05:11 |
| CarlFK | it sometimes seems to make a difference, like flipping between 5 and 6 flipped errors between 40k and 20k | 05:12 |
| ssk1328 | Yeah. | 05:12 |
| CarlFK | but.. | 05:12 |
| ssk1328 | Should I repeat them again? Can we discuss them now? | 05:13 |
| mithro | ssk1328: Yes to both | 05:13 |
| CarlFK | there is an led next to the nob that shines in my eye when I try to look at the nob, so I unplugged it to see what number I was on | 05:13 |
| CarlFK | when I plugged it back in, I could not reproduce the 40k/20k ... and don't see any other patterns | 05:14 |
| mithro | CarlFK: what does the device look like without the "amplifier" plugged in? | 05:15 |
| CarlFK | mithro: better. dvisampler0: ph: 1 1 -3 // charsync:111 [4 4 4] // WER:48528 0 0 // chansync:1 // res:0x0 dvisampler0: ph: 2 2 -2 // charsync:111 [4 4 4] // WER: 84 0 0 // chansync:1 // res:1280x720 | 05:17 |

| CarlFK | mithro: this box only seems to make things worse, and if I fiddle with it I can maybe make it a little more or less worse | 06:07 |
