_BnuYeah, though it's being reworked so individual bytes of the address lines can be set to save time.00:00
_BnuAnd so that the IPL lines can be sampled directly.00:01
mntmnimxrt555 has 2d gpu and 5MB integrated sram, costs 8 euro 00:12
mntmnunfortunately not yet stocked00:12
mntmn_Bnu: i see00:12
_Bnu4D GPU and 5TB SDRAM...00:19
_BnuUnfortunately only the PS3 can have 4D graphics.00:24
mntmnemotion engine...00:30

Claudemntmn: look at these renesas chips . there is one with 10MB SRAM , video , Cortex a8 in tqfp 06:15
Claudealso look at tibbo / sunplus sp1 ! 06:15

CottonUndiesIn one or two sentences can someone describe the audio add-on that is being considered? I saw the new twitter post with the new IN/OUT2 label, but in total I'm still not sure what I'm looking at, I do believe however that this will enable accelerated MHI (?) output over the OUT1 port? I guess anotther thing I should note is that while audio over HDMI is ok, I really need good analog or digital out, nothing to to with HDMI16:20
CottonUndies. Maybe I just don't understand the concept....16:20

mntmnCottonUndies: it is an AHI soundcard that also mixes in paula and cdda audio if you want16:50
mntmnCottonUndies: mhi not yet, but could be done with fw2.016:51
_BnuWhat is MHI. ('A`)17:52

apolkosnik[m]Is that how hdmi packages audio? 18:02
mntmnClaude: do you think amiga rgb could be captured with parallel CSI?18:44
_Bnuapolkosnik[m]: No, definitely not.18:47

mntmn_Bnu: in the rtg of pistorm, do you offer 24/32 bit only or did you implement a trick for 8/16 bit somehow? does it do 8 bit?22:18
mntmn(color i mean)22:18
mntmni guess 8bit LUT color could be done with a shader?22:30
mntmnah i just watched a youtube vide of one dude setting up pistorm, and he had an 8bit mode. now i'm curious how it is implemented22:58
mntmnah yeah a shader alright https://github.com/captain-amygdala/pistorm/blob/main/platforms/amiga/rtg/clut.shader23:05
mntmni should really try out my pistorm to see what you've been up to!23:18
isoriano_mntmn: Just one question .. those are Samtec connectors on the ZZ, right?23:18
mntmnisoriano_: i think so, why?23:19
isoriano_ZZ for Sun23:19
_Bnumntmn: 8-bit is done using a shader, yeah.23:20
mntmnbtw i think i might make an adapter from ZZ9000's main board to an ECP5 + CM4 thing23:20
mntmnlike, fpga->cm423:21
mntmnall other solutions seem either underpowered or massively overpriced23:21
_BnuFor RGB565, the Pi GPU doesn't support BE 565, so I have to flip all the bytes manually before uploading the frame buffer to texture, haha.23:21
mntmnha!23:21
_BnuFor the Pi 4, I'll also have to make an RGBX8888 swizzle shader.23:22
mntmn_Bnu: btw i watched this video, skipped through some parts but it gave me an impression! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnKQYWEbEvM23:22
mntmnit was kinda wholesome23:22
_BnuBecause for some reason they dropped support for the one P96 uses by default.23:22
mntmnschwizzle23:22
_BnuAnd if you use the other one, P96 flips all the bytes in software... on the 68k...23:22
mntmnah i see!23:22
mntmnlol23:22
isoriano_mntmn: this one please :-) https://shop.trenz-electronic.de/en/30631-MYC-CZU3EG-CPU-Module-with-4GB-DDR4-128MB-Flash-Ethernet-USB23:23
mntmnisoriano_: too expensive 23:23
mntmndoesn't make sense if you look at the price of the cm423:24
mntmnand i can put the bus glue and the capture in a lower priced fpga23:24
+ RobDangerous (~Thunderbi@p200300ec8f00de0089a877ff9ee0a465.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)23:24
mntmnspeaking of capture... Claude did some denise -> MIPI CSI thingie right? how did that work out?23:25
mntmnalternatively i could give the fpga its own sdram buffer and use the code from va2000 and put a HDMI switch in there, but it seems overkill perhaps23:27
_BnuAh, as far as I know it works, but I haven't gotten to try it out yet.23:27
_BnuThe stuff in the github repo for it needs some setup that I don't yet know the details for, haha.23:27
mntmnoh TMDS251 is only like 2.50 eur23:28
_BnuIt works as a Denise passthrough though, that much I can confirm...!23:29
mntmnalright!23:29
mntmnargh but we have the sii chip on the zz9000 carrier23:30
mntmnso it might make more sense to redesign zz9000 and put the cm4 on it directly23:30
mntmnbut then it's not a nice upgrade for existing users23:30
mntmnmany question marks :323:30
_BnuZZSCSI...!23:31
_BnuI can make a really horrible boot ROM for it...23:31
mntmnyeah anyway i want to improve the drive situation and also have autoboot and stuff23:31
_BnuAh yeah, and with the CM4 you could keep disk images on attached storage too.23:32
mntmnthat's also possible with the zynq, for example on an usb stick23:32
mntmnand linux fw23:32
mntmnthe mythical, not delivered linux fw23:32
_BnuCould probably reuse a lot of the PiSCSI code for both options.23:32
mntmnthat is nice.23:33
mntmnthe hdmi port conundrum could be circumvented with an additional slot bracket23:34
mntmnso there could be a zz9000 upgrade as well as a zz9000+ where this is more streamlined or something23:34
mntmnnaja naja much food for thought23:34
_BnuWurst! Wurst! Wurst!23:35
mntmnall that wurst yes23:35
_BnuPossibly turkey bacon...23:35
