When crop or album mode is enabled, frame latency will be different from what is listed in
. In this case, the user can use the following
methods to measure frame latency:
are read only registers. Their values are real-time frame and HSync latency between input and output video.
Frame latency may vary within a range; the
readback register indicates the maximum frame latency, while
indicates the minimum frame latency. If
is set to 0,
and
are cleared.
, the PVSP will monitor the values in
, then record their maximum and minimum values in
. Both of these signals are 15 bits wide – the highest 3 bits are the frame latency and the lowest 12 bits are the HSync
latency. Note that it will take several seconds for PVSP to find the maximum and minimum frame/HSync latency.
In a normal case (not game mode), the PVSP’s input video and output video latency are consistent.
pvsp_frc_latency_measure_en
, Primary VSP Map,
Address 0xE8F0[6]
This bit is used to enable frame latency measuring. The results are recorded in pvsp_rb_max_latency and pvsp_rb_min_latency.

Description
0xXXX
Minimum of frame latency
3.2.1.6.
Game Mode
Frame latency should be as small as possible for gaming applications. PVSP supports a game mode, which has nearly zero frame latency (latency
less than 5 lines).
To enable the game mode of PVSP,
