Overview
Hamlet® VidScope product line is a family of software based television monitoring and measurement tools. Operating on a Windows platform, the Waveform monitor, Vectorscope and associated Surround Sound 3D Audio displays with the Picture can all be displayed on the PC's monitor screen, stored or transmitted as required.
The real-time Hamlet® VidScope displays look like those on conventional waveform monitors with variable intensity, persistence and graticule brightness. The Audio bar graphs displays have peak hold and may have the associated graticules scales and ballistics selectable from digital, VU, PPM and Nordic etc. The user can scale all displays to be any sizefrom full screen to thumbnails. Screen Layout permits a quad split display. All layouts can be saved with the other VidScope setting as users defined presets for convenient recall. Waveforms can be displayed in field, frame and line select modes. In Line select mode all frame's lines are overlaid in real time with the recurrent features displayed in higher intensities. Horizontal scaling can be set between 1H and full-frame and amplitude between half scale and x 10. Luminance only, Chrominance, YCrCb or RGB parades or stacks can be displays as can statistical and gamut displays. Markers can be inserted into the preview display to show the region being investigated. IN Vector Mode a standard graticule is shown with scaling of 75 or 100% or variable gain.
