Congratulations on the progress! Looks like maybe some problem with HSYNC to iron out?
I’m really not sure yet. If my initial look into it is right, I think there’s something going on with my four different banks.
I have four dual-port RAMs and essentially write into one, and then read from it a line or so later.
I have some concerns with synchronization where the output monitor might be “Blanking” but the input is still writing.
I’ve been dealing with stuff in a “streaming fashion” completely irrespective of vertical sync. So the receiving data clock and transmitting clocks have no relationship.
More on this later.
