Arduino-TVout like mbed library?

18 Mar 2012

With an Arduino there is a library to do composite video out using 2 data pins, a 1K and a 470R resistor and some code

but with the 8 bit hardware im limited to black and white and limited resolution (resolution lowers the more code i add) so i decided to bust out my mbed

but i cant find any similar library and my limited knowledge of the protocol i cant make my own

is there anything similar for the mbed?

here is arduino library http://code.google.com/p/arduino-tvout/

thank you!!!

This seems like something that may help you http://mbed.org/projects/cookbook/wiki/ComponentlessVGA. A search of "componentless VGA" in the mbed site may produce more that may be of interest.

that site does not appear to have any code or a library to show how to use it

i also would prefer Composite (aka AV) over VGA

i cant seam to find much ... i found ONE that was a terminal but the user only posted the bin not any code

The Component-less VGA was originally a post from the mbed team. Contact mbed support and they may be able to help you with the code. A search of "composite video" identified this post that may be closer to what you are looking for http://mbed.org/forum/news-announcements/topic/2789/.

There is something similar here:http://rossum.posterous.com/20131601 and the code is available
