To support the accelerating image format conversion to FPGAs, Altera has developed a 1080p video design framework, described in this white paper, that makes it easy for system designers to develop a custom image format conversion signal chain. The image format conversion reference design discussed can be used as a starting point and modified to develop custom video processing applications. This design is hardware-verified and is available to qualified customers.
