Image selection
Once you have determined the formats appropriate for testing HDMI displays, you will
apply a series of images suitable for evaluating the display. For digital fixed pixel displays,
you typically want to select images to test for pixel anomalies, photometry, luminance,
centering, resolution, and persistence.
Each image in the generator’s library is intended to test one or more attributes of a
particular display type and video type.
Note: You can also create your own images. See “Creating custom images” on page 204
for details.
The table below provides a summary of display characteristics and the images used to
evaluate them.
