videomancer beta program
Archived RC: 1.0.2-rc.5The built-in Bitcullis program is in colour again; it had shown only brightness since 1.0.0. Everything from rc.4 (bipolar Gain/Depth attenuverters) is carried over. This candidate has not been through the desk bench.
Before you test
- Flash 1.0.2-rc.5 UF2 (full image) via LZX Connect with Show pre-releases on
- LZX Connect 1.3.10 or newer (1.3.14 recommended)
Testing goals
Bitcullis shows the source colours
high1. Feed a colourful source (colour bars or a camera) and load Bitcullis. 2. Compare against Passthru, then turn up Hori Decimate and Vert Decimate.
Pass: The picture keeps the source's colours at every decimation setting, with no colour fringes or stripes along the block edges.
Chroma Poster and Luma to Chroma change the colour
high1. With Bitcullis loaded on a colour source, sweep Chroma Poster. 2. Sweep Luma to Chroma.
Pass: Chroma Poster steps the colours into fewer bands; Luma to Chroma changes colour saturation with brightness. Neither leaves the picture grey.
Bitcullis on SD analog input
medium1. Feed an NTSC or PAL composite or component source and load Bitcullis.
Pass: The program loads and shows colour; the picture is stable.
Gain/Depth attenuverters still behave as in rc.4
medium1. Set a modulator to Free LFO and sweep Depth from right through center to left.
Pass: Center is null; left moves opposite to right by the same amount.
