top and bottom ends) with respect to the average
value of the R, G, B channels within the evaluated
value detection frames at the top and bottom of

The evaluated value is positioned higher than the
center of the evaluated level meter when the level
at the top is higher than that at the bottom end.
Similarly, the evaluated value is positioned lower
than the center of the evaluated level meter when
the level at the top is lower than that at the bottom
end.
Adjust the evaluated value such that it falls
almost at the center of the meter.
