[pci] Interest In Video Bridge Application -- Newbie

["Daniel Schmelzer" <dschmelzer@hotmail.com>]

Hi All--

I am interested in the possibility of an open PCI video bridge application 
for video line/frame grabbing from a 10-bit parallel Bt.656 bus.  This would 
be a partial replacement and upgrade for the widely-available 
Conexant/Rockwell/Brooktree 8x8 and Philips SAA7146 chips.

Even though I can figure out the possible building blocks (PCI + 
Wishbone/DMA Bridge + GPIO), it appears that the knowledge necessary to 
integrate them will require an immense learning curve.

Are there a couple of good books or other resources that might help me 
along?  Nothing is too basic at this point--I am starting from scratch 
knowledge-wise.

FYI, I have the Spartan II 200K version of the development card used for the 
example application.

Regards--

Dan
