2.3.1  
Display Configuration Notes  
Note: The TV Format and resolution cannot be changed at run-time. Any changes must be made in the video.reg  
registry file.  
Note: Expect TVs to crop the desktop as TVs normally crop their output. Monitors that are normally attached to PCs  
are not likely to crop the desktop. Monitors accepting TV input may crop the desktop. For that reason, avoid placing  
user interface elements near the edge of the display.  
Note: Some monitors that accept DVI input expect 1280x768 or 1024x768 and may not work with 1280x720 (which  
is the resolution for 720p).  
2.4

3.2  
Driver Files  
The display driver and TV encoder DLLs must be included in the Windows CE image. To do this, make sure either  
Platform.bib or Project.bib includes statements for the display driver DLL and the TV encoder DLL. A Direct3D  
Mobile implementation module can be included optionally  
For example, to configure the display driver and the Focus FS454 DLL:  
#define INTELCEG_DRIVERS_DIR $(_WINCEROOT)\INTELCEG\drivers  
ddi_iceg.dll $(INTELCEG_DRIVERS_DIR)\display\i854\ddi_iceg.dll  
fs454.dll $(INTELCEG_DRIVERS_DIR)\display\i854\fs454.dll  
NK SH

To configure the Direct 3D module add:  
gdld3dm.dll $(INTELCEG_DRIVERS_DIR)\display\i854\gdld3dm.dll  
NK SH  
3.3  
Registry Options  
The MSI installs a configuration file that contains registry options. If you wish to keep this file separated, please  
make sure this file is included in either Platform.reg or Project.reg. For example:  
#define INTELCEG_DRIVERS_DIR $(_WINCEROOT)\INTELCEG\drivers  
#include "$(INTELCEG_DRIVERS_DIR)\Display\I854\video.reg"  
It is also possible to copy the contents of this fileinto the end of Platform.reg or Project.reg.  
The registry settings in video.reg must be modified to configure the display driver and TV Encoder DLL to use on  
the target platform.

Configuration Information  
The display driver and TV Encoder DLL configuration use registry settings found in video.reg. The following  
sections describe the available options. This section is a companion to, and not a replacement for, video.reg. See  
video.reg for acceptable values and default values for each of the options described below.  
4.1  
Display Driver Options  
4.1.1  
Display Options  
The display options configure the display resolution and mode.  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Drivers]  
Display  
This key is set to ddi_iceg.dll to enable GWES to load our display driver.  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\Intel]  
Width <DWORD>  
Requested width of the frame buffer – in pixels.  
Height <DWORD>  
Requested height of the frame buffer – in active lines.  
Depth <DWORD>  
Requested pixel depth of the frame buffer – in bits per pixel.  
Refresh <DWORD>  
Requested rate at which the frame buffer is sent out from the GMCH to the output port.  
DVOScanMode <DWORD>  
Bit Field that specifies which timing table flags to preset when matching compatible timing settings in port-driver  
timing tables. Available flags are (Interlaced, Pixel Double, and Line Double). This value should be set to 0x03 (that  
is, Interlaced and Pixel Doubled output) when specifying 480i/576i HDMI only mode. It should be set to 0x01  
(Interlaced) when setting 1080i mode for any TV encoder.  
DigitalPort <DWORD>  
This key determines the display configuration – analog-only (VGA), DVO-only, or twin.  
SetHead <DWORD>  
This key determines the port (analog (VGA) or digital) that controls the timing information. For analog-only (VGA),  
analog (VGA) should be selected. For DVO-only and twin, digital should be selected.  
ConfigId <DWORD>  
This key can be used to support multiple configurations and select the configuration. Typically, one configuration is  
used and this key has a value of 1 to select that configuration.  
PowerMgmtShutdownDelay<DWORD>  
This key can be used to delay powering down the display when Windows CE is suspended. The value is in  
milliseconds, and the default value is 0.

AlphaBlendMode<DWORD>  
This key is used to enable ARGB32 pixel format on the framebuffer. When in this mode, the alpha channel in the  
frame buffer is used by the HW internally to blend the graphics plane over the video overlay plane. The value for  
this registry key can be either 0: disabled, or 1: enabled.  
Notes:  
This feature is only supported with the “Depth” registry key set to 0x20 (32). It is ignored otherwise.  
With this mode enabled, any framebuffer pixel with a zero alpha value is transparent – which unfortunately  
means that the CE desktop and CE utilities will be transparent. Direct Draw must be used to render non-  
transparent pixels to the framebuffer. If GDI is used, only black will be seen.  
This feature is enabled automatically by the display driver. The driver does this by enabling destination color  
keying and by configuring the framebuffer to use ARGB32 pixel format. The one side effect this configuration  
is that any pixel that has an alpha value of 0xFF that also matches the color key selected will be transparent  
instead of opaque. For this reason, it is recommended to use alpha values from 0x00-0xFE.  
When in this mode, the HW assumes that the framebuffer is pre-multiplied. When using Direct Draw to render  
to the framebuffer, it is necessary to use the correct pre-multiplied/non-premultiplied flags. If this is done  
incorrectly, the final rendered image may not look correct. When using the CPU to draw on the framebuffer (ex:  
SW emulated BLT, memcpy, and so on), you must take into account the fact that the framebuffer is pre-  
multiplied.  
VRWorkaroundMode<DWORD>  
This key is used to enable the Video Renderer Workaround that prevents the stock CE 5.0 video renderer from  
drawing the color key on the frame buffer. This key is ignored if “AlphaBlendMode” is disabled. This key should be  
enabled whenever “AlphaBlendMode” is enabled and the stock CE 5.0 video renderer is used.

4.1.2  
Port Driver (TV Encoder DLL) Options  
The port driver (TV encoder DLL) options control the selection of the port driver and the discovery of the TV  
encoder device.  
I2cPin <DWORD>  
This setting selects the I2C* bus. (Value of 1 usually identifies DVO-A, 4 usually identifies DVO-B/C)  
I2cDab <DWORD>  
This setting selects the Data Address Byte (DAB) for the TV encoder silicon in the system. The DAB is normally  
specified by the port driver itself, but this setting allows for customization if needed.  
PortOrder <STRING>  
This value determines the order that the DVO ports and analog (VGA) port will be enumerated. This also controls  
the order in which the driver will detect TV encoders. This is especially important for DVO-B and DVO-C devices  
because they share the same I2C bus. The PortOrder string should include the analog (VGA) port number and the  
single DVO port that is in use. To avoid confusion, do not refer to multiple DVO ports.  
The following setting on the 854 specifies to enumerate the DVO-B port (2) and then the analog (VGA) port (5).  
"PortOrder"="2500"  
The following settings is required for “Shadow” DVO mode on the 854 with the Conexant CX23899 and Silicon  
Image 9030 HDMI transmitter.  
“PortOrder”=”2350”  
PortDrivers <STRING>  
This value determines the port driver DLLs that are loaded. A port driver is needed for TV encoders and is used  
when the DigitalPort is set to DVO or Twin. This string should contain a single port driver.  
The following setting for the 830 specifies to load the Focus fs454 DLL.  
"PortDrivers"="fs454"  
The following setting for the 854 specifies to load the Conexant cx873 DLL. Note: The Conexant cx873 DLL  
supports both the CX25873 and CX25892 TV encoders.  
"PortDrivers"="cx873"  
To load the Silicon Image 9030 port driver in single DVO mode.  
Note: Using the sii9030 port driver in this mode requires a port order of “5300”  
“PortDrivers”=”sii9030”  
To load the Conexant CX23899 and Silicon Image 9030 HDMI port driver in “Shadow” DVO Mode.  
“PortDrivers”=”cx873 sii9030”  
DebugPortMessage <DWORD>  
This setting is used to turn on or off the debug messages in port driver module.

4.1.3  
Memory Management Options  
The memory management options control memory management code.  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\Intel]  
MaxFbSize <DWORD>  
This key controls the size of the frame buffer in bytes.  
830, 854: To compute the frame buffer size required for a given resolution, first compute the width in bytes using  
the width * bytes per pixel. Then, if that isn't a power of two raise it to the next power of two to get the stride.  
Finally, compute the total size as stride * height. For example:  
720x480 @32bpp use “1E0000”  
720x576 @32bpp use “240000”  
1280x720 @32bpp use “5A0000”  
720x480 @16bpp use “F0000”  
720x576 @16bpp use “120000”  
1920x1080 @ 32bpp use “870000”  
MinVidSurfX <DWORD>  
This key sets a minimum size in pixels for a video surface in the horizontal direction. The default minimum width is  
16. Note: Do not set this lower than 16.  
MinVidSurfY <DWORD>  
This key sets a minimum size in lines for a video surface in the vertical direction. The default minimum height is 16.  
Note: Do not set this key to less than 16.  
PageReqLimit <DWORD>  
This key limits the number of pages (each page holds 4096 bytes) that can be allocated for video memory. Note:  
This field is typically not modified.  
ReservedMemoryBase <DWORD>  
This key is only used for static video memory configurations. It determines the location of video memory in the  
system. This setting is commented out when using dynamic video memory.  
ReservedMemorySize <DWORD>  
This key is only used for static video memory configurations. It determines the size of video memory, which starts at  
the location specified in the registry (ReservedMemoryBase). This setting is commented out when using dynamic  
video memory.

4.1.4  
2D Graphics Options  
The display driver support options to control 2D rendering. Some of these also affect video rendering.  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\Intel]  
SysToVidStretch <DWORD>  
This key determines if the system to video stretch BLT functionality is enabled in the driver.  
0 = disabled  
1 = enabled  
BlendFilter <DWORD>  
This key determines the blending filter used for 2D stretch BLTs via GDI stretch BLT and DirectDraw AlphaBlt  
routines. It only affects GDI stretch BLTs when the GDI stretch blit mode is set to BILINEAR through the  
SetStretchBltMode GDI API. It only affectsAlphaBlt-based stretch blits when the DDABLT_FILTERENABLE flag  
is used.  
1 = Bilinear  
2 = Anisotropic  
BlitSyncVBI <DWORD>  
This key determines if a 2D BLT operation will be blocked until the vertical blanking interval before executing. The  
BLT occurs during the vertical blanking period, which updates the frame buffer when active data is not being  
displayed. This can be used to prevent tearing if BLT operations are being requested directly on to the primary  
frame buffer.  
Note: This key enabled for GDI only, not DirectDraw – If DirectDraw is used, double buffering should be used to  
accomplish this because flipping the back buffer on-screen will sync to the vertical blanking interval automatically.  
Flipping will utilize less CPU than using BlitSyncVBI because BlitSyncVBI busy waits for the vertical blanking  
interval within the display driver, whereas flipping is asynchronous.  
0 = disabled  
1 = enabled  
InterlacedToProgressiveAutoBob <DWORD>  
This key determines whether hardware bob will be automatically enabled for overlays if interleaved (woven) source  
is provided and the GMCH is in a progressive display mode. If this key is disabled, hardware bob will not be  
automatically enabled for overlays.  
Note: The driver dynamically checks the state of this registry key value whenever  
IDirectDrawSurface5::UpdateOverlay is called to show the overlay.  
Note: This registry key value is only supported on the 830 and 854 GMCH.  
0 = disabled  
1 = enabled (default)

4.1.5  
GDI Options  
The following option is a GDI option that indirectly affects the display driver. The display driver does not read this  
key. Instead, it affects how GDI calls the display driver. For more information, search for “ForceGRAY16” on  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI]  
ForceGRAY16 <DWORD>  
This key controls GDI anti-aliasing.  
4.1.6  
Video Options  
The display driver supports a number of options to control video rendering. See the 2D Graphics Options section  
above for additional options that affect video rendering.  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectX\DirectShow\Video Renderer]  
The following settings affect the direct show video renderer.  
MaxBackBuffers <DWORD>  
This setting determines if single, double, or triple buffering is used. This is the number of back buffers, so please  
keep in mind that you have a primary buffer as well. Setting this to 0 gives you single buffering, 1 – double  
buffering, and 2 – triple buffering.  
KeyColor <HEX>  
This setting configures the color key. This value is in R-G-B format in HEX and corresponds to the color drawn on  
the frame buffer in areas where the video overlay is to be positioned.  
Note: The key can be changed at run-time, but Media Player must be restarted to pick up the change. In cases where  
this is being used to debug an issue, choose a bright color. The default color tends to be dark grey or black, which  
can hardly be differentiated from the video image.

Port Driver (TV Encoder DLL) Attributes  
Port driver (TV Encoder DLL) attributes are used if the display type is either DVO-only or Twin. In that case, the  
display driver reads port driver attribute settings from the registry, tests their values, and if they are valid, passes  
them to the port driver during initialization. Port driver attributes have Boolean, range, String, or list types. Boolean  
attributes values must be 0 or 1. Range attributes must match the minimum, maximum, or an internal value  
computed using the step – similar to a “for” loop in C Language “for (valid = min; valid <= max, valid += step)”.  
String values are typically read-only. List values must match one of the list entries.  
If an attribute name does not match a supported attribute or if an out of range value is used, the display driver will  
fail to load and this will result in a GWES exception.  
Port driver attributes are set at the following key:  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\Intel\Param\Attr]  
4.2.1  
Port Driver Attribute Notes  
Note: If an attribute name does not match a supported attribute, or if an out of range value is used, the display  
driver will fail to load and this will result in a GWES exception.  
Note: The port drivers include a TV Format attribute. Please note that changing this attribute at run-time is not  
supported in the display driver.  
4.2.2  
Conexant Port Driver Attributes  
See the configuration file video.reg for information on the Conexant port driver attributes. Look for details in the  
section entitled “Conexant CX25873/CX25892 port attributes”. Contact Conexant for more information on the  
Conexant port driver.

4.2.2.1  
DAC setting with different TV Output Type on HH2  
Currently there is a new video card named “Hominy Hill2” that uses the CX25899 as the TV encoder. There are four  
analog outputs on that card, which can be configured to different signals in order to adapt to the different TV Output  
Types. In video.reg, there are 4 parameters for analog output’s setting, “DACA, DACB, DACC, DACD”.  
So if the parameter “TV Output” is set to 1 (Composite + S-Video), 2 (Composite) and 3 (S-Video), the DACs need  
to be set to:  
“DACA”=dword:4  
“DACB”=dword:3  
“DACC”=dword:2  
“DACD”=dword:1  
Else if the parameter “TV Output” is set to 4 (Component) and 6 (Composite+RGB), the DACs need to be set to:  
“DACA”=dword:3  
“DACB”=dword:1  
“DACC”=dword:2  
“DACD”=dword:4  
Option 6 of “TV Output” is for a special TV connector named “SCART I” which is very popular in European. This  
option is only available for the “Hominy Hill2” now since it can output four analog video signals at the same time.  
The default DAC setting in video.reg is for “Lost Creek”(CX25892) when you select the "PortDrivers" as "cx873",  
so please modify this setting if the video card is changed among “Miller Creek”, “Lost Creek” and “Hominy Hill2”.

Programming Interface  
7.1  
WinCE Graphics Driver Escape Interface  
The Intel® Digital Set Top Box Graphics Driver for Microsoft Windows CE .NET 4.2/5.0 supports the WinCE  
system API - ExtEscape(), which provides a dynamic configuration channel to the display driver.  
Following shows the ExtEscape API function prototype and the usage module for the user application to  
communicate with the display driver.  
ExtEscape(  
HDC <Handle to graphic device context>,  
int <Escape Code supported by the display driver>  
Note: see below table of the list of the supported escape codes by the display  
driver  
int <size of the escape code specific input data structure by number of bytes>,  
LPCSTR <pointer of input data buffer of BYTE>  
Note: Please note that LPCSTR does not imply the input data buffer is anything  
related to “string”, which means a long constant pointer of char (BYTE) buffer. User  
need convert the escape code specific input data structure pointer to LPCSTR  
int <size of the escape code specific output data structure by number of bytes>,  
LPSTR <pointer of input data buffer of BYTE - “Input Data Structure”>  
Note: Similar like LPCSTR, LPSTR does not imply the output data buffer is  
anything related to “string”, which means a long pointer of char (BYTE) buffer. User  
need convert the escape code specific output data structure pointer to LPSTR.  
);  
After the Graphics driver is installed, three *.h files (icegd_public_escape.h, igd_pd.h and  
igd_public.h) can be found under the directory: \WINCE500\IntelCEG\Drivers\Display\I8xx\Extras\Src\Inc.
