Thanks Michael, this is exactly what I’m talking about! There was someone else here on the boards who said similar things; FCP broadcast safe and the like may not catch everything, especially because of the way it measures the signal. Perhaps it didn’t catch your analog source material because it wasn’t digitally originated to begin with..
Professional facilities seem to have legalizers at the end of their SDI pipe before it goes to a deck. We’re looking at the UKs legaleyes product because it does both HD and SD, like others Leader, etc.
The scope / legalizer combo is what we’re after.
thanks
