The DMVA1 is a video capable SoC announced in Las Vegas on March, 18th 2010. It has an ARM926EJ-STM core running at 300 MHz. The device is announced as being pin compatible with other devices from the DM36x family and resembles in its yet described details almost any feature of the DM365@300MHz. Still it is reported with a different set of encoding capabilities and has a deviating feature description for what TI for now calls the vision co-processor that exists aside to a H.264 video co-processor, all contained in the same SoC.

Further connectivity towards a DM643x device as a design option for increasing the computation powers is described by TI.

TI states that this device is useful for security video applications. The accelerated video analytics functionalities that are mentioned in the software section are:

people counting
trip zone
intelligent motion detection
camera tamper detection
streaming meta data

The reference design platform comes in form of an IP camera and is integrating a GUI tool for rapid development. This starter package is called "DMVA1 IP Camera Reference Design" with the shortcut DMVA1IPNC-MT5. This device should be available from TI or from Appro Photoelectron Inc.
