ABSTRACT:
A two-dimensional video timing display with numeric readouts allows a user to quickly, easily and precisely measure the timing difference between video signals. A graphic display area within a raster display region provides a two-dimensional display of vertical timing offset and horizontal timing offset of an input video signal with respect to a reference video signal, the graphic display area including a reference indicator centered in the graphic area indicating the timing of the reference video signal and a timing indicator in the graphic area indicating the timing of the input video signal with respect to the reference video signal. A numeric display area is adjacent the graphic display area to display the actual vertical and horizontal timing offsets in appropriate units according to the format of the input video signal with a precision to one video clock cycle. Also the source of the reference video signal and optionally an alarm when the timing between the two video signals is outside predetermined limits may be shown in the numeric display area. For an instrument having a tiled raster display a vector display may be shown in conjunction with the timing display to provide fine subcarrier phase discrimination between analog composite video signals for hue matching.
