After my last success with the Serial TV, I’ve got the idea making it possible for you to the television using a browser.
I’m still using my Serial TV, but now it’s connected to an Arduino instead of the computer. The Arduino has an Ethernet Shield on top, and it’s programmed to make a homepage with a text-field and a submit button!
Here is some pictures of the project:

Finally I’ve finished my Serial TV project.
It uses a PIC18F4620 running 32 Mhz (8 Mhz crystal + HS PLL), so I’m using the EasyPIC5 for the testing. It is also possible to use other PIC’s, but the available TV Pixel lines will be reduced, caused by the limited RAM.
First I’m going to give alot of the credit to Bruno from Micro-Examples, as I’ve used his PAL TV Code: http://www.micro-examples.com/public/microex-navig/doc/089-pic-pal-tv
Then I’ve wrote some extra code, to make it possible, to write text strings to the television, via a serial communication.

Yesterday i started my development with Microchips 24FC1025 EEPROM.
I have successfully connected one 24FC1025 to the PIC16F877A, but i will try and connect 4 of them, which is the maximum.
I’ve also got my SD Card holder soldered so i could use it. I’ve connected the SD Card to the PIC18F452 and made some code in mikroBasic, using their SD library. I’ve successfully made a logging code, and a piture manager.
