Zybo HDMI Tutorial Help

[jessekotsch]

I am trying to complete the following tutorial https://reference.digilentinc.com/learn/programmable-logic/tutorials/zybo-hdmi-demo/start?redirect=1 but I am having trouble generating the project. I download and extract the hdmi_in files. In Vivado I went into the folder and did typed in the cmmd "source ./create_project.tcl" which will open the hdmi_in project. The problem is when the file opens there are no files in the project. I can see there are files in the folder I extracted but not in the project in vivado so I cannon generate a bit stream. I also get this error 

ERROR: [Board 49-71] The board_part definition was not found for digilentinc.com:zybo:part0:1.0. The project's board_part property was not set, but the project's part property was set to xc7z010clg400-1. Valid board_part values can be retrieved with the 'get_board_parts' Tcl command. Check if board.repoPaths parameter is set and the board_part is installed from the tcl app store.

 

I have already downloaded the correct board files for the board I am using and I can select the correct board when doing a project. I am using Zynq - 7000 Development Board

HI @jessekotsch,

Did you download the project from GitHUb or the wiki? If you downloaded the project from GitHub then you also need to download the sub folder vivado library in the repo folder as well. What version of vivado are you using? Can you please take a screen shot your boardfiles folder including the path. 

cheers,

Jon

I have tried downloading the project from both GitHub and the wiki and have the same issue. I am using Vivado 2015.4.

 

Thank you for your help!!

Hi @jessekotsch,

This demo was made in and for Vivado 2016.4. What board are you using? Are you using the Zybo? You do not have our board files installed. Here is the Vivado Version 2015.1 and Later Board File Installation tutorial. I have included a screen shot of our board files folder. You might have issues loading and generating a bitstream with the new version of the project.  Here is an older version of the zybo projects. If you have problems with this version of the project. You will need to change the version type to 2015.4 in the system.tlc   here:  hdmi_in/src/bd/system.tcl. Once you load the project you will need to upgrade/generate the IP cores by clicking tools->reports->report IP Status. Then you will need to create a wrapper. Then generate a bitstream.

cheers,

Jon

We downloaded the correct board file and now we get a new error

Hi @jessekotsch,

The version of vivado matters to projects like this. The HDMI-IN was made for vivado 2016.4 here and 2016,2 in the projects i linked above. Because you are using an older version you will need to upgrade the IP cores and create a wrapper. To upgrade/generate the IP cores you will click tools->reports->report IP Status then click upgrade. Once the IP cores have been upgraded then you will need to create a wrapper by right clicking on the design under sources.

cheers,

Jon

Thank you!!!

it seems to be working. It says all of our IP cores are up to date
