Pls excuse my newby question: Trying to compile, get compile error - not found SDI.h. I've pasted it everywhere I can think of, the error persists. ?? help / thanks!

fixed / thanks

Im Looking to capture a Manchester stream using the timer however the ISR(TIMER1_CAPT_vect) is missing stage changes !! and ideas Im compiling for a nano 328p;

boolean rising;
boolean data_ready;
unsigned char high;
unsigned char low;

void setup() {
TCCR1A = 0;
TCCR1B = (0<<ICNC1) | (0<<ICES1) | (2<<CS10);
TCCR1C = 0;
TCCR1B &= ~(1<<ICES1); TIFR1 |= (1<<ICF1); rising = 0;
TIFR1 = (1<<ICF1) | (1<<TOV1); // clear pending
TIMSK1 = (1<<ICIE1) | (1<<TOIE1); // and enable
pinMode(8, INPUT);
digitalWrite(8, 0); // leave floating to count 60 Hz etc.
pinMode(5, OUTPUT);
//Serial.begin(115200);
}

ISR(TIMER1_CAPT_vect) {
high = ICR1H;
low = ICR1L;
data_ready=1;
digitalWrite(5,!digitalRead(5));
rising=!rising;
if (rising) {
TCCR1B |= (1<<ICES1);
TIFR1 |= (1<<ICF1);
}else {
TCCR1B &= ~(1<<ICES1);
TIFR1 |= (1<<ICF1);
}
}
void loop() {
}

I have tested this on mega2560 on timer5 using 3600 ppr encoder. i changed the code accordingly. but working only in slow rotation how to speedup the counting?

Thanks for this, very very much appreciated.
