//S2MM config  

 XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_1_BASEADDR,0x30, 0x4); //reset S2MM VDMA Control Register  XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_1_BASEADDR,0x30, 0x8); //genlock  

 XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_1_BASEADDR,0xAC, 0x1f400000);//S2MM Start Addresses  XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_1_BASEADDR,0xAC+4, 0x1f900000);  

 XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_0_BASEADDR,0xAC+8, 0x1ff00000);  

 XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_0_BASEADDR,0xA4, 2592);//S2MM Horizontal Size 2592  XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_0_BASEADDR,0xA8, 2592);//S2MM Frame Delay and Stride  XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_0_BASEADDR,0x30, 0x3);//S2MM VDMA Control Register  XAxiVdma_WriteReg(XPAR_AXI_VDMA_0_BASEADDR,0xA0, 1944);//S2MM Vertical Size start an S2MM transfer

Hi @flomingo 

I wrote example on how to use and debug the AXI VDMA in my video series. You might want to have a look:

Video Series 24: Using the AXI VDMA in Triple Buffer Mode

Video Series 25: Debugging issues on the AXI VDMA IP

Video Series 26: Examples of advanced uses of the AXI VDMA IP

Let me know if you have any question

HI @flomingo 

This is because you are not pointing correctly to the file. Start by changing the directory to the extracted folder using cd. The you can source the file. The file will not work if you are not sourcing it from the same directory
