History

The HDMI2USB firmware was originally developed by Jahanzeb Ahmad using hand coded VHDL/Verilog and with cores from OpenCores and the Xilinx LogiCORE IP Core Generator.

This firmware (called the Jahanzeb firmware) was replaced by the “MiSoC Firmware” starting middle of 2015. The “MiSoC Firmware” was renamed to the “LiteX Firmware” after we started using Enjoy Digital’s soft fork or MiSoC called LiteX. (We use the term “MiSoC” and “LiteX” interchangably through the documentation.)

You can find a comparison between the two firmware here.
