If no video data is found to sync on, your live video decoding looks like this:

The Video Decoder now has a new layout witch includes an Autotune function.

It syncs fully automatic to the analog video signal without any need of adjustments even within the wide IQ bandwidth of up to 245MHz:

We have implemented a Frequency Offset and Frequency Tune Range but most important an Autotune feature which includes the following modes :

  • bypass
  • manual
  • phaseshift (default)
  • powerskew
  • centerphase
  • quadphaseshift

 

In most cases the default selection of phaseshift or powerskew will do a great job without the need of any further adjustment:

The Video Decoder now offers color and optional NTSC decoding and you can mirror and flip the video.

We have implemented a chroma adjustment (color control) and you can select between the following video decoders:

  • PAL
  • NTSC
  • PAL INV
  • NTSC INV
  • Auto (under development)

The Video Decoder now offers an automatic Video Standard recognition (PAL or NTSC).

Simply use the new "Auto" selection:
