··· 714 714 715 715 does the same for the EAV (End of Active Video) code. 716 716 717 + - Insert Video Guard Band 718 + 719 + adds 4 columns of pixels with the HDMI Video Guard Band code at the 720 + left hand side of the image. This only works with 3 or 4 byte RGB pixel 721 + formats. The RGB pixel value 0xab/0x55/0xab turns out to be equivalent 722 + to the HDMI Video Guard Band code that precedes each active video line 723 + (see section 5.2.2.1 in the HDMI 1.3 Specification). To test if a video 724 + receiver has correct HDMI Video Guard Band processing, enable this 725 + control and then move the image to the left hand side of the screen. 726 + That will result in video lines that start with multiple pixels that 727 + have the same value as the Video Guard Band that precedes them. 728 + Receivers that will just keep skipping Video Guard Band values will 729 + now fail and either loose sync or these video lines will shift. 730 + 717 731 718 732 Capture Feature Selection Controls 719 733 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
